Well I stood on a chair for my 40th and danced to the Macarena , and The Barbie Song with Goofy ! . 😁 -

I was wondering that , Commonly . Let's hope Elmo and family are o.k. -
Thanks , Framey , I hadn't considered that . 😃

Are England boring you , Newmarket ? . 😁
-
Thanks , Ouch . 😃 You stinker , Elmo , trust you to be different ! . 😁

Hi Everyone When connecting a hook to a Ronnie Swivel I'm thinking ; Hook lying on it's " back " then the " crook ? " of the Ronnie Swivel enters the eye of the hook from the top i.e. pointing down . I hope that makes sense . 🤔

I never fancied overnighters in the first place , and these posts just reinforce my decision . I find it hard to discipline myself to check the lake out in the daylight , never mind the dark . Hats off to you , Elmo. for having the " hunger " to push yourself , I'll just pull the duvet over me , and read about how you got on when I wake up the next morning . 😁

Is it me , or does anyone else want to push the cyclist in the lake ? ; all that ringing their bell , not 1 " excuse me , nor " thanks " . 😠

I used to take Nurofen Meltlets if ever I tweaked anything to try and stop the muscles going into spasm , but I had to stop that as the Nurofen clashed with my regular tablets . Nowadays I just take paracetamol . Sounds like you need regular stretching exercises to make you more supple , Elmo . 😃

Hi Newmarket . Fancy an Italian Manager ? , hopefully there will be one going spare soon . 🤞 -
Blue , are you in competition with Highy to see who can buy the most kit ? . Not that I'm jealous . 🤥
-
The same as Nick . I'm waiting to have some work done on my toe , which hopefully will have me fit by the end of the month ? .

Newbie questions / dwarf rods - any good?
crusian replied to Mr Shelby's topic in New to Carp.com, New to Carp Fishing
Hi Mr Shelby I'm not sure what size Carp you might encounter , but personally I would be using a Sz. 6 hook with 15lb line if your water has snags and Carp into double figures + . For 10lb line I would use a Sz. 8 . 😃 -
Thanks , Elmo . I'll do my best to remember your tip . 😃
-
The lady was lucky it was you there to help her , Carpbell , I'm sure I would have stuffed up .
-
Fred's tail doesn't seem to stop wagging , and his eyes look very friendly as well . As a Postie I would feel safe approaching Fred for a stroke , but not with my trolley . 😃
-
No , Elmo's hair is a lot shorter .
-
So was it you , Kev , or Max that kept Jack in order ? . Congratulations on your successful trip . 😃
-
You're not supposed to run round while eating pies , Highy . Is the Army the career change you're looking for 🤔 ? .
-
What part of the country Pazzi ? .
-
Am I being a plonker , or could a fish take one of the coloured Kickers rather than the boilie ? .
-
Hmm , I'm a SZ. 6 man , and like you I use a boom section with a Ronnie that I can quickly change . On my next trip out I'm going to try a Cygnet Tackle Kicker - Cygnet have a 5 for 4 offer on their Terminal Tackle . 😃
-
Oh that's awful , Highy . Get some " me time " , and get out on Friday as you say 😃 . A new job sounds good as well .
-
What about your Bivvy Pole Screws , Elmo ? . Your work overnighter plan sounds a good balance of your family time , and " me " time , but hard work for an old bloke like me . 😃
