LECTURES

Having somewhat recovered from being rather unwell a few years ago I have resumed my former bad habits of going out at night and talking to groups - often of fisherfolk ! This is usually accompanied with an appropriate Slide Show - most of the contents are very unprintable and the anecdotes are frequently litigious . And you can even have fun and ask real questions if you like ! But the wife says if I am putting myself under stress and strain lecturing I have to charge sensibly for it . So it's £125 plus VAT and Travelling and you also get to feed me before I start .

TUITION

I am still teaching a little - mainly casting and flydressing . They even put me on the Education and Training Committee of the Salmon and Trout Association - I did the light relief I suppose ! - then the Committee got reorganised ! Then they got real silly as a result of having to jump through hoops to get the free money off of Sport England . The subsequent political rectitude got too much for me so I resigned . ( Hell , I've been checked for perversion through Criminal Records – I don't need to go on courses to learn more about it ! And I won't either ! )

Politically incorrect lessons are still available – oddly I've taught more since I resigned than before – quite why I have no idea . But I WON'T TEACH CHILDREN EVER AGAIN !!

And I've stopped teaching flydressing  after 27 years at the old regular Monday Night Sessions at Friesland School , Sandiacre with the Fly Tying Group  ! ( They kept dying and over the years it got depressing ! )

Day Trips - If you are interested in accelerated learning and you are willing to pay all expenses and £75 + VAT then I will fish with you for a day - and you get to keep all the fish ! And you can book Bob Church through us as well !

For one on one casting and groups I charge £20:00p an hour ! Just ring up and book me - I was once a Birthday Present for somebody ! ( And we won't discuss that any further ! )

ADVICE

I never mind giving advice over the phone . Unless , that is you are going to spend your money somewhere else . So please don't waste my time and I won't give you bad advice either because I have recently been known to do that when I thought someone was taking undue advantage !  So if you are going to spend your money elsewhere just you go and ask them for specialist help . And if you want to spend it with me I shall be delighted to pass an hour or two with you chit chatting idly away - honestly I am not busy - I have nothing better to do - really I haven't at all !
