9th Annual James Farrow/FM Charity Carp fish in.

[Richard Farrow]

All the swims decent Evan, just some more of a hike. But I'm sure that if you are as knackered as Cakey us 'young guns' (cough, cough) can give you a hand.

The fish could be literally anywhere, no red hot swims at all.

Met Office: Thetford: forecast weather

A very pleasant and enjoyable weekend in good company and with good weather. Les might not agree with the weather part, he was rather warm, funny seeing him with a towel over his head with a hat on top.

Nice to meet new FM folk, i.e. Windy, I left him trying to tempt a bite on Chineese Gooseberry. The TEA he shared with us was very, very nice. Also great to meet old friends again.

Reports to follow in due course with I'm sure some photos. Special thanks on the day the Thrush for a superbly cooked BBQ and plenty of it, AND to everyone who attended for their support.

Hoping all had a safe journey home.

What a great weekend!

That BBQ was superb and the food just kept on appearing as if by magic.

Great to meet up with old frinds and make some new ones too, Windy being almost exactly how I envisioned having never met him before.

A special thanks to Richard and Di for all their organisation and help. I really must sort out a proper 'power' supply for future trips though.

I won't let the cat out of the bag, but, the winner this year was trluy deserving, and most of us were heard to say; "about time too" . . . .

Finally, for those who couldn't make it, well, you missed a great weekend.

I had a great weekend.

Thank you Richard for the organisation and thankyou Wayne and Cecil for the Barbie. Snetterton lakes is a great venue, im surprised they have only sold 24 tickets for it.

 

[Cakey]

Trev if the bbq was so good why did you try to stick yours up Sash's arse ?

 

[trev (100M bronze)]

it wasnt me, it was a big boy , and he made me do it then he ran away. I know you have incriminating pics. Post them if you dare......

 

[Richard Farrow]

Did anyone lose a small black on/off switch with 5 LED lights on it? Found near the BBQ area, looks a little like the space shuttle from the top and has a squarish shaped bottom.
