The replacement BA for Cozee Home was describing a colour that appeared in one of the bed sets. 'Salmon,' she announced. Then, having second thoughts, she changed it to 'trout,' and finally settled on 'pale trout'. QVC - always entertaining!

Talking of fishing. Stratobuddy will love this.
Talking to a neighbour, her brother came up to stay with her over Christmas. And spent two hours talking to her about fly-fishing! Her husband just acted deaf and continued to watch the TV. She was the one who had to nod and act interested. I admit nearly wetting myself laughing. She said her brother is like uncle Colum out of Derry Girls and just drones on.

Talking of fishing. In the summer of 1974 I was 18 and just left school. I was seeing my first ‘serious’ boyfriend and he suggested a weekend away in a holiday flat near Brighton.
He would have been my ‘first’ (bear in mind it was nearly 50 years ago). However, about 10pm on the first evening he opened the boot of his car to reveal a stack of fishing gear. He then took a container out of the fridge - live worms for bait
. Off he went for a spot of night-fishing near Shoreham Harbour.
He didn’t last much longer !
