    New winter jacket - wax or goretex

    As a result of a similar thread a few months ago, i bought a Dutch ex-army Goeretex coat. It is indeed rather tatty and well worn, although as far as i can tell, there are no bullet holes in it!:) It came to me at around 30 quid and it's done a terrific job so far.

    I can only speak for my own area Lewis, but a number of robberies, violent crimes and even a couple of murders have solved with the help of CCTV:)

    Books

    Maurice Wiggin's The Passionate Angler - a forgotten classic, if you only want to read about monsters avoid this book. If you need a reminder as to why you fish, get your mitts on a copy asap!:)

    River Record

    Fair enough Andy but times have certainly changed! I once headed the list for a river and i think Brian took it from the Barbel Catchers list (with permission of course:)) as i certainly never publicised it. Some time later he asked me for a photo, i duly informed him that the fish had...

    River Record

    Crikey! When did "official" river records come into being? Brian Dowling just used to collect as much credible info from as many sources as possible! If he was happy it was listed. :) Isn't all getting a bit too serious?
