For the past few weeks I've been buying the Angling Times. It hasn't changed much but has been featuring items which previously would not have appeared. One today is about self isolators and makes for interesting reading. I can understand single , eccentric guys who look like Catweasel and live like Robinson Crusoe but a married one?
One guy called a Peter Ralph, cashed in his pension, bought a large bivvy and moved onto the banks of a fishery called Orchard Lakes on Oxon. He pays 6k pa for the privilege. He lives with his dog and fishes for carp. He remains married and his wife phones daily and visits monthly to provide clean clothes and supplies.
He has been there 10 years. He has a holiday each year with his wife.
There are other examples of a life I couldn't accept. I like fishing but not 24/7.
