trouble is this comes at the end of a busy week for TF AND TFC wednesday is the big bash at lindholme. thursday/friday is the glebe festival. sat/sunday is the ivan marks memorial at the glebe. ok there,s two of us coming straight from the glebe but were not married. i think it makes a difference

would anyone mind if I made this a" bring a guest match".........I really want to try and make this one of the biggest and best matches the Glos Canal and the TA site has seen for quite some time.

I must be getting VERY old!!!!!!!!!!! I was watching the thread, and now you've got the match organised! If it is not too late, can I fish it as well? (I'll bring Morse with me if he's going!). Please tel me exactly where this match is taking place on the canal!

Ian will include you and any further 40 or so TA members without any problem Kleinboet. Morse has his name down!

no problem from me ray bring as many as you want, as long as you include all the TA members that want to come . i cannot see what possible objection abyone can have, after all its your match. how we off for scales.

Hi
I will leave this on here for a while longer to see how it goes......if we get 25 members and each can bring a guest then we can fill the 50 pegs.I have been told I can fill the full 75 pegs filled by advertising it in the Gloucester and Bristol tackle shops but this must be a last resort. Curtains is going to come and help me run the match......he has scales,pegs and all relevent paper work.I am off work next week so I will go up and have a walk along the match length with the warden and even take some pics for all to look at.I will also get directions to the Bristol Hotel.
