That's important Adrian, I have to have an approximate count of the number of people so that Bernie can organise the caravan and that I can confirm with the Three Horseshoes for a fantastic lunch.

Come on chaps - who's coming? I need confirmation in the next 2 days.

I am

And me, and my mate Dave.

Me definitely, and my mate Steve probably...

Come on chaps, keep those confirmations coming.

And Ron...

i'll be there!

I will be there still trying to talk a mate into coming as well.

me an possibly my dad as well,
chavender i've found that reel if you want it, it's an old shakespear but should do the job.

And I know that Ed and Bev will be there.

I want to come but my missus says i'm not allowed near a boozer with that Knowles and Marsden pair.......but i've managed to sneak a fiver into my sock so i'm coming....giz a fly, goo on giz a fly!

I'll be there..... x 2

what you going twice ed?

Count me in!

Wayne

yes .......Jase

I've got a lovely crystal 'dish' on rosewood trophy on order for the winner, and a small trophy to keep. The trophy will go to the person who catches the most fish. That way those who are on a catch and release ticket don't have to weigh their fish. Just get someone nearby to witness the fish and keep a count. I know such a system could be open to abuse by someone intending that, but there won't be anyone attending this event that would do that so it doesn't matter.

Stop whining brummie and bring 2 socks...

As organiser of this day, I will not be in the competition so I will attempt to count you fish.

That's very fair of you Ron, especially considering you would probably have won it!

I would also like to spend a little time with the less experienced. Not only that there are photos to be taken.
