Loaches Online Forum

helen nightingale wrote:an indoor loach meet combined with book launch party in november followed by loachy camping in spring sounds great. we could probably find some interesting water critters to photograph too. it would be good to find a site with not too many nettles so that we could go swimming too.

Wading around in wellies is fine by me, but Hels! You can go swimming if you like, me dear, but I'll be sitting on the bank watching/taking blackmail photographs for use on the O/T. Heheheh!

Emma

I'll be around in some waders looking for loaches but i doubt i'll be swimming around in the waters, unless i fall in or pushed in.......

Make sure you're ready with the camera Em, he's going to make a big splash!

Martin.

Might have to get some sort of remote trigger for the camera then, what with having no free hands at the time when Mr Robson is due to 'accidentally' fall in.

Oh aye!

I have fast reflects and a strong grip! (your going in with me)

there is nothing like camping out by a nice river and going for a refreshing swim

especially if Graeme is volunteering himslef to get dunked.

another need for the laptop and webcam, with a plastic bag over them. actally, would a waterproof covering be advised should there be a book party too?

Right! That's the last time I volunteer to help you then! All I said was that I would have my hands full - that was when I was going to try and stop you from falling in when Mark and Hels gave you the push, of course. But now I'll definitely be helping them....

Hels, please explain your waterproofing comments re: the book party!

is the book launch not worthy of a bottle of champagne?

and Graeme's idea of booking up somewhere under the name of a certain other fish group's name in case the place wont let us back could suggest he is in need of a good party.

aff aff!

Yeah we at the Catfish society would like to book a room for trashing...

maybe we should go somewhere with a swimming pool?

as this isnt the OT, Emma can you reseve me a copy of the book please? i would prefer you had my wedge than amazon

Do you know, I read that as wedgie first time around. Yes, of course we will reserve one for you.

Peterborough has an outside Lido place. Supposedly freezing even when we are in the throws of a hot summer. So if you wish to take a dip in the winter Hels, be my guest!

i am not one of those silly people who goes swimming of Brighton beach on Boxing day.

you are asking for a comment that i cant possibly post here!
