Hey Ted

Good to hear from you. You shocked me - thought you wanted to make a complaint ;)
Although most members seem to like the new site, a few have contacted me and told me that the old site was better :'( 

Yeah it's been over a year since I heard from you. My new Kayak (by now it's already old), a ocean kayak trident 4.1 is really good. I caught lots of snapper since I got it. 

What are you doing for your new job?

Yeah I think you got quite a few views on your filleting video. It's really helpful.

For anyone who hasn't seen it:

See ya and have fun! Catch a lot of fish and No complaints about the site!!

😃 Well no complaints from this end.  This is my Homepage!
Oh and just joined :'(

Booyah....It's been so long I thought you had gone off to join some strange and mystical hobby group...like a knitting club or something :)

When I first joined the Army, I dehydrated a bit in basic training. They found very small crystals in my kidneys. Not big enough to call stones. Treatment was 3 weeks rest and a shit load of water. It took about 3 years for the pain to go away. To this day I still drink at least 2 litres of water every single day.

The stones you describe are nothing like the little crystals I had...But I tell you what, the pain was like nothing I have every felt. Most of the time there is no pain. But when the bladder gets full and you need to piss, the pain is crippling intense.

That was almost 25 years ago and lots of beer and wine keeps my kidneys flushed out these days :)

Good luck with the op mate...do what the doctors say...and I take a UK size 10 or US size 11 if you want to knit me some booties :) :)
