Default Scottish World Team 2009

Anyone know of any practise dates that the team is having?

I would like to go along, if that`s allowed and watch these guys do their thing, especially on the rivers.

I`d be grateful if anyone could pass on dates if they have them.

Ask Chaff he will tell you, i think they have been practicing already as they wanted to to be on the waters as near to the same time as they would be fishing them in the comp. I thought you were lost in cyber space only two posts in a year Ian.

Creelman,
Nobody can stop you if they are fishing on the rivers - right to roam an' all. A wee bit more difficult if they were out in boats, I would think... but nothing a good pair of binos couldn't fix!

I have a float tube lolol.

Well I checked, seems the ones practising are the opposition, several of the other countries have been out, hells bells, rumour has it, one of the scottish 2009 world team even took some french guys out on a river to show them how to do it.

I think, the Scottish team did walk the river tay beat or have plans to do so.

It would now appear that if the team doesn`t get out practising this year, they will be curtailed next season because of the rule not allowing teams to be on the competition venues quite a time before the competition. I Not sure how long that is but it is a fair time.

Anyone know who names have to be given to if you wanna boat or control during the competition?

I feart to post camshy, I usually get jumped on from a great height when i do lol

Speaking about being lost in cyber space!!!!

Anyone know what has happened to my good buddy Terminator?

He is either lost in the ether or has finally disappeared up his own orifice with all the space made availiable from the excrement he was spouting.

He promised to let me know a court date but I`ve not heard anything.

Now I`ve no holidays left for it, I`ll have to throw a sickie to go see that comedy,

Mind you, i wont be holding my breath waiting for the date.

Default Worlds

Creelman, I think Neil Mcarry was taking names for people interested in controling for the Worlds next year................hope priority is given to guys who competed in the World trials or the guys who controlled at the trials

I think its 3 months before the Worlds that competitors are not permitted to fish World Venues

Cheers sunburst, thats right, we got told that at the eliminators, its my age, memory is going. I should have Neil`s number

Well if it is that length of time, the team won`t be doing much practise unless it is this year.
