Wasn't able to take up the invitation this year due to other commitments . Hope its as good as previous years - make sure you go steady on the pop on Saturday night Mr B - wouldn't want a repeat performance of the rods down and dry wretching in Hideaway Bay like the other year

Tightlines!

Hi Jim, looking forward to meeting up again mate ,it'l be a good crack .
just a quick note; there are roadworks on the B606 at Empingham which can mean a nice drive round the res' some repairs to the bridge i think. as day 2 is on rutland this may cause a bit of a delay getting to the lodge, we would like to start day 2 at 9.30 (if poss') as we will be finishing a bit earlier, this is so we can get the prizes sorted & the winner announced at a reasonable time
