Its a bit like the DJ last year.

"Why aren't you dancing?"
"he's not playing what we like"
"here's some paper and a pen right down your requests and i'll pass them to him"

"Sausage egg n chips" :roll:

We in the East have the British Crabbing Championship in Walberswick each year. It gets very crowded but is a lot of fun 8) :lol: I like the high-tech tackle used, such as a piece of bacon tied to a length of string - it actually works :lol: :lol:

Saturday,1 o'clock main car park at Looe, Contest will last 1 hour. On the boating pool dam.
First to Ten
Biggest crab
Most in an hour.

For welfare reasons no more then ten in your bucket at once.
Bring your own tackle if you want. but its cheap enough to get there.
No hooks.
Don' forget your secret bait.
