a gallon of hemp on the kitchen floor

Neil, ive posted this before, but in case you didn,t see it.

Speaking of funny fishing stories, anyone got any ? I'll start it off.

Once upon a time, many moons ago, i went night fishing with a mate to Sefton Park lake in Liverpool. I'd been playing football the previous day and strained a leg muscle, so i'd brought a ralgex stick with me to ease the pain. During the night the temp plummeted to 0 degrees. Being young and stupid at the time, i hadn't brought enough clobber to keep warm. EURIKA, i'll go in the cave behind us and cover myself in Ralgex, that'll do the trick. I covered every inch of my body ( yes every inch ). I'd also brought the drinks bottle off my racing bike with me filled with orange juice. 10 minutes later, my trousers were round my ankles and the juice was being squirted over my knackers. I was crying with the pain, my skin felt like it was starting to blister. The juice wasn't working, only one thing for it. For the second time in 15 minutes i was naked and sitting in a freezing cold lake. There was steam coming off the water as i went in, but boy oh boy, what a relief. Moral of the story. Get the best set of thermals you can afford.

I also use a pressure cooker, luckily I always do my hemp in the garage on a small gas ring. Last year I set the timer and went off to do some things in the garden, when I returned the whole of the inside of the garage, my motorbike, my tackle, etc, etc was covered in hemp. The relief valve on the cooker had blown out, lucky I wasn't there when it blew!
 
Wives 'eh...can't live with 'em, can't bury them under the patio...what's the world coming to.
