I've just joined the group so greetings from the North of England. I'm a returnee to modelling having put my brushes aside some 30 odd years ago for all the obvious reasons. I've started back into plastic modelling (aircraft and AFVs) and that's led me back to figure painting which was my original love. I've set my self a target of getting proficient with oil paints so please be patient if I bombard you with annoying questions!

Hello Watcher and welcome to PF.
Ralph.

Ralph,

I saw that you are a keen angler. I spend longer than is good for me on the banks of the Ribble!

Yes I am a keen angler, I love fishing.
It's only this year that I have started going again(I suffer with mental illness as most people know here on PF)I rarely left the house for about 10 years.
Now that I am going fishing again I am really enjoying myself,not catching any monsters as I'm only targeting the silverfish.
Most of my family are from Preston and my older brother used to fish on the Ribble.
I mainly fish the Buckley Trap.

All the best.

I'm pleased that you are able to get out and that angling is playing a part.

Best wishes,

M

Welcome 'back'.

Hope you enjoy your psnting and the comradeship here.

Paul
