I havent been fishing for a while now and wont get to go as often as i used
to so what im doing is keeping up with the angling world so i dont fall
behind. I get anglers mail each week to keep up with the news and improve
your coarse fishing each month. This way i know whats going on in the
angling world even when i have long spells out. I suggest if you are just
starting back you buy some magazines to see whats happening in the angling
world.

: once again the pricing is absolute rubbish

: So, what was the point of all that then, are you a crack pot or what?

Maybe he was joking?
Just a thought, considering the use of the words 'butler' and 'scullery
maid'.
