What a plonker i am, heres me thinking original post about Liams skate was from Les Forest and not Les McBride up in Edinburgh, no wonder when i e mailed for more info Les F got the e mails i suspect and not Les M. No wonder i did not get an answer. Pity Les F did not reply then i would have sussed it. Thats if Les F got my e mails as i have been having loads of bother with Blueyonder.
Pity e mails and messages dont come with accents.

Alan m8, when was the last time you saw a 100lb + common skate caught off Shields pier on light spinning tackle. If the first name had been Rich or Ling(X) then maybe it could have been true.

I can take all the stick you can throw at me, bet Bob Lydon has something to say when he sees that post.
