Coronavirus - Keeping it light :-)

Does the feudal law still exist that allows locals to fish the river on Sunday mornings? I know I came up against this a few years ago on a private beat.

No idea, Mike. I’m not an angler, but I do know permits are required on a lot of the rivers around here.

I think all Salmon rivers require a permit to fish, but there was/is a Feudal law about locals being able to fish free on certain dates, I just wondered if it still applies.

I think some locals fish free of charge, they just do it at night

 

[littlespark]

The only fish I am interested in comes in batter from local chippy.

I love fish, of all sorts, and tonight I am going to make a seafood paella

with chips? ? ?

 

[Mike Johnson]

You don't have chips with Paella, it's Newcastle Brown and mushy peas.

 

[telectrix]

i don't know what paella is. is it related to salmonella?

 

[littlespark]

Paella?
Sounds like it’s got “pie” in it... so can’t be all bad

Heathens! Paella needs no accompaniment other than a nice Blanc Pescador or Albariño to wash it down.
It was delicious, actually.

Crikey Tel...I heard that one when i was at school! In those days everybody wanted a Datsun 240Z...
Yes, I know, that's very lightweight for a car...

thought when you were at school, nobody had heard of Datsun. all had model T Fords.

I had to go back to "school" later in life, Tel...
well, I say "school", but in reality it was borstal.
