Status: the perpetual carrot that entices us from the front and prods us in the back.
~ Fennel Hudson
There’s no such thing as ‘not enough time’ out here in the woods. I don’t even have a watch. Time is my own, categorised as nothing more than ‘morning, afternoon, evening and night’.
It is this brighter side, the romantic side, the emotional side, that appeals to me.
Angling is just a way of relaxing and escaping in the countryside.
It was a country life, a precious existence.
We get so used to the gregarious nature of our towns and villages that we forget how crowded our existence has become.
The only person to blame for your situation is you.
