Don't these times...................fill your eyes The Spike Island Pilgrimage

To those of you who don’t know its historical significance, Spike Island was put on the map on the 27th May 1990 when The Stone Roses played a now legendary concert to over 27,000 people.
Now, nearly 18 years later, the significance of that day has been recreated, as Push Iron Power took in Spike Island as part of its 2008 tour. There weren’t quite the 27,000 revellers there to welcome us, but none the less, as with all our incursions into the urban jungle, there was something to talk about.

Fishing…….. What’s it all about?

Of the vast amount of fishing type persons that were on the banks of the Sankey Canal on Saturday, not one looked like they were there for enjoyment. This then raises the question; are they there for pleasure, or for survival? I'm guessing survival.

So, If any of you readers partake in the act of fishing purely as a means of survival, I’ve took it upon myself to help you out via some research - Get on this...........

Oh, and just so as you know. The wearing of full camouflage outfits and the warming of maggots in one's mouth may be acceptable on the canal banks of the north west, but it certainly isn't anywhere else, OK?
