    With the £bn’s Of pounds it brings to the U.K. Fishing is just thought of as a past time yet remains the biggest sport in the U.K.
    5 million known anglers each year
    Freshwater fishing matches now £100k top prizes
    All year round
    Andy Murray is rented by the U.K. for two weeks in June as are a lot of my neighbours houses ... £4K a week
    World has gone mad
    Can’t we have a thread for things that make us old gits sick?

    Anyone who can’t see it

    Watch the hands of today’s TV presenters carefully ... it’s madness

    Listen to the emphasis on the key words they use and when they really use them

    Even the weather forecasts are treated like mass

    1954, hope you don't think I was digging you out. Loads of people think he got a knighthood, I still think he should.

    O'Sullivan for me. Admittedly, because I'm a little obsessed with snooker, but the talent he possesses is phenomenal and his approach to his trade is refreshing. Of course, when you're financially secure, you can afford to play for enjoyment and be philosophical about winning or losing, but he has a good perspective.

    The control of the cue ball, the vision about how to approach a break, the ability to engineer a chance, the deft flicks off other balls to maintain position, the bloke is in a different league to all other players.
