What a very understanding wife you have Gary, not many women would stand for that and what a result, 137lb of catfish is a big fish by any standards, wow!

I've said it before Gary you are a lucky man and I envy you I just wish I'd done things like that when I was younger and fit enough.

Gary you can fool some of the people some of the time, however you can't kid a kidder I know the terrain and its a sunset you have pictured (and a very nice one at that) and not a sunrise. Are you sure you didn't have too much beer?

All this marital bliss is a charade!

Have a look at picture No: 13 (top one), they've obviously had a barney, they couldn't be seated further apart! She's saying:

"I'll give you 'romantic spanish villa'! That's as close as you're getting to me this weekend!"


Nice photos and one hell of a catch. Just like a good day at Gold Valley only mutliplied by a few 100 times. Nice one.

The caption to the 'sunrise' picture says "I was up with the sun". Blame me Martin, it was my caption, not Barney's.

Although he would definitely know the difference, sundown means going for the headache, sun up means he's got one.

My god but aren't they ugly suckers?

Not Barney and Lisa, well not Lisa certainly.

I was refering to the catfish of course, but you did seem to enjoy it all. Well done and congratulations on the double - anniversary.
