OK, sure we had a few moments that were a bit dodgy. The tone was set when a chap walked in to the room and started giving Paul abuse as he could not find the venue (like that is our fault) however he gave a quick apology when he was chinned about his behavior. Everyone brought…
River Kelvin is not just for fishing #shock#
John Short (Volunteer Bailiff) posted a couple of pictures today on Twitter .. The last time anything like this was spotted on the river a full scale riot was taking place and some Royalty were busy being married. I have seen guidance on paddling the Kelvin and thankfully serious paddlers only go on it when it is…

Chapman Bag Review
“Have you been treating yourself to a new bag for work?” said light of my life/wife as I opened a rather nice parcel from Chapman bags. I explained that it was a bag for review as my previous tatty old sack that I usually used for fishing was making me the subject of ridicule in…

Milngavie Fly Dressers Spring Program
The Milngavie Fly Dressers Spring Program is now available here. The 7th of February is looking pretty good as Craig MacAdam of the Riverfly Partnership will be giving a talk. This year a survey is being carried out on the Kelvin (Willie Yeomans has drafted me in as seemingly we can collect samples as we fish)…
2013 Resolutions Required ..I guess!
I suppose I need to write some kind of 2013 resolution post as all the cool kids are doing them these days. So what I should really do is look at last year and what I did poorly and then look at this year and see what I can do better. Quite frankly I was…
Save Millport’s Marine Biology Station
Anyway, Willie Yeomans was on the text tonight going on about Millport – he was going on about some “Save Millport” campaign. I did not have a bloody scooby what he was on about and I told him that I could probably find better circles to cycle in however he got all mouthy about it so…
