I got promised one of those as well ... I guess George just kept to busy to
fulfill every little committment. In the years I potsed here as "RalphH" I
received many emails from George that were filled with entertaining fishing
stories - none of that BS and huckersterism most hated - just good stories.
It's a shame those are all gone.

Thanks for the welcome Wolfgang,
I heard about George's death - I know he had a few enemies on here and no
doubt other places but it is always sad to see a contributor passing away.

He never did send me that free GG goody pack though!

Cheers,

Chris

Hi all,
I used to post on here probably about 3 years ago, in the days when
people
such as George Gherke, Mike Connor, Ken Fortenberry and Wolfgang (and
others
obviously!) used to post.

I left and went to New Zealand for a year and since I returned to the
UK
I
have not had access to these newsgroups.

Since, I have spoken to Mike Connor on a fishing forum (hope the move
went
well Mike).

I'm looking forward to posting again.

Regards,

Chris Cook

Welcome back. With Mike's recent return, all of us except George are
still
posting. George won't be back.

Wolfgang
who would bet a shiny new nickel on it.
