New British Rod Caught Record !!!!!

[Tadpoleman]

Well it only took 3 years 2 months and 2 weeks but i think that the constant letters from myself and everyone off this site and elsewhere the NFSA have eventually got round to dishing out certificates !!!!
It arrived this morning and lets just say i`m made up !!
And they also included a nice appology letter :P

and here is the certificate that i have waited so long for

This is the Scoop that ower very own Mr Alan Charlton reported about on the 21/06/2003


Thanks to everyone who gave them a little nudge and reminded them on that us lot up north do exist !
Cheers Alan and cheers to Billy (Billys tackle)

Well i had just about gave up considering the length of time involved and the lack of communication back ! I`ve lost count of the number of emails and letters that i have sent,maybe there was good reason for the hold up?BUT WHO CARES :P as the saying goes \"Good things come to those who wait\" well if the champagne was on ice when i caught it ...it would be worth a few bob now....lol
