Pat Eddery rode the Brave to win the Prix de L'Arc de Triomphe. <br /><br />Your humour was well received, so no worries follow the link and see what a hash Starkey made of the Derby!

First time I have read your blog and post...Hi Dave,<br />First time I have read your blog and posted on it, well done to your Son on his degree. Maybe he would like to join the BS and give Pope some advice on fishery management (insert smiley face) he sure as hell needs some advice.<br /> <br />I have read your comments on Bob’s blog and have to agree with you there needs to be a balance otherwise Pope and his puppets have all the say. Fred Bonney is as usual causing the BS more harm than good but lets face it he is a Pope yes man soon to be joined on the committee by Frampton who is so far up Pope’s rectum you can only see the soles of his shoes. I see he has had to have the last say on Bob Robert’s blog, I thought this guy had some principles but alas it appears I was wrong!<br /> <br />Isn’t it funny how all those years ago we had quite a few disagreements regarding the BS you were defending it and Pope. It did not take him long to go about his devious ways and cause you to leave, he has done the same thing to many other good guys who only had the society’s best interests at heart. Now three more of the committee have resigned as a result of Pope’s treachery and deviousness.<br /> <br />Bob recons none of the BS detractors have offered any positive or constructive advice on how to put things right. I don’t agree with him, I have suggested many times that the only way to bring the BS forward is to remove Pope from the chairmanship.<br /> <br />If what Mike Berridge says is true regarding Pope wanting him to break the data protection act Pope should be expelled from the Society without delay. We know it won’t happen because he has surrounded himself with yes men who appear to have little courage to do the right thing by the membership.<br /> <br />The BS will stumble from disaster to disaster under Pope, it has little credibility left and Pope has none in my book. His hypocrisy knows no bounds he is now comparing a five lb barbel from the upper Severn with fish from Adams Mill. A place I am sure you will remember he rubbished along with anyone who fished there and indeed the resident barbel that swam there. <br /> <br />Don’t let things depress you Dave autumn will soon be here and you will no doubt have the banks to yourself and things will quite down.<br /> <br />I look forward to seeing you again at the next BSG meeting. The 27/07/10 see's my 65th birthday and I intend to enjoy it.<br /> <br />Kind regards<br />Ray WoodUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07345749503288848427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558987905791642824.post-30897728405385535232010-07-26T09:30:06.615+01:002010-07-26T09:30:06.615+01:00You are right Monty and in the early days beats we...You are right Monty and in the early days beats were closed to rest them after a period of intense fishing.
