Blues · #2

Great TK, really enjoyed the crack last year despite the weather.
Will definitely be putting the dates in my diary.

#3

Good man Blues4eva, look farward to doing battle on the towpath again

This winter cant be as cold and the cut iced over as much as last year...............

Can it

#4

The notoriety of the Grueller series spreads far and wide………..

Had a tel call last night……..

A northern cut crack rang to confirm directions to Wyrley Grove Bridge on the Extension canal and asked me to pencil him in for Match 1

And when I say ‘northern’ I mean ‘northern’ - his anticipated journey time to fish this opening match is 2 hours

tk i'm an idiot but i'll have a go at them again might not make a few of the early ones due to rough hay commitments

#6

Cheers Cheslynboy

Perhaps you can twist Goughy's arm up his back again

Or is he too traumatised after last year

MrV · #7

TK...what are you doing to me!! You told me they would start 2 weeks after the last Cashmores match. I have now booked holidays at work to accomodate the fortnightly Gruellers, and you have started them the week after

Looks like the prayer mat will have to come out and persuade the powers that be to let me change my hols

#8

Ooooooops - so I did MrV - that was the original intention - sorry

Mind, shouldnt be any problem with your powers of pursuasion, that Yorkie gift of the gab will smooth the 'powers that be'

- you wont need that prayer mat I'm sure.

The change 'came about' having looked at how the fortnightly calendar ran, also taking into account how Xmas and New Year falls

MarkV · #9

Can't believe its Grueller time already !!! Where's the year gone

#10

Hope you can slip one or two in MarkV, diary/commitments permitting

#11

Received a call from the Northern Cut Crack today............it went along the lines of

You've got to imagine the accent

'I drove down yesterday and had a practice for next week'

'Bloody hell, you're keen - any good, did you have a few?'

'Oh arr, had a few but you kept that quiet daint you?'

'What you on about, kept what quiet?'

'Well I fished how you told me and had between 6 and 7lb of bits and pieces in about 3 hrs. You daint tell me about the

. '

'You what? Never used the stuff - never ever given it a thought, honest'

'You must do........I was just having silvers on your info, I know the place can throw up decent bags and I'd only got about 2 hours left to suss the cut out so I fed a throw away line of it. Let it settle for 1/2 hour then first look on it a bream, bout 3lb. Then a tench. So I fed another line of it. Went back on the silvers for 10 mins. Went back on the

and had bream and skimmers one after the other off both of the

lines. That 6lb got bumped upto 40odd in the next hour'

'Never ever used the stuff, honest'

'Yep, bet you will next week'

Should be fun and games, this match one next Sat.

But can N C C overcome the

'

#12

Shall expect to see you on the towpath sometime during the series

#14

ps - [highlight]the corn[/highlight] and boilie is still working

That might tempt Gem to come out and play

Even if I can't fish I will come down and see you lot

MrV · #15

You've got to imagine the accent

With that accent, he must drive a tractor
