Recent attacks on our sport by the fashion editor of a hitherto-respected morning newspaper have convinced me the lads I go piking with could teach the Bridget Jones generation a thing or two:
1/ No-one cries if someone else turns up at the river wearing the same outfit.
2/ When arriving at the venue, it is not necessary to greet the lads by telling them they look like they've lost weight, or their new waders really suit them.
3/ When changing into thermals, no-one asks whether they make their bum look big.
4/ On arrival at the venue, we do not immediately adjourn to the toilet in small groups and spend half an hour discussing which fish we fancy.
