I started this diary on my website in September 2003. This week my sneaky colleague Matthew Kirk took advantage of my absence, while visiting the bookbinders, to convert my occasional notes into a blog. I'm not sure what the difference is, or whether it really matters.
Little sport this early in March, but we can all feel the sap rising and it won't be many weeks before we cast a fly.
I've been tinkering with William Roberts' Llawlyfr Y Pysgotwr, a Welsh booklet of trout fly patterns for North Wales rivers and lakes, written in 1899. I intend publishing a bilingual version of it later this year- Flies for Snowdonia - Plu Eryri. Reading about Llyn Idwal and Ogwen was getting me excited so I took it off to Aberystwyth this morning to show it to Uncle Moc. He got quite excited too, and offered to write an introduction for it.
I have to load up for the West Country Game Fair this week so will not have any more time for sport, publishing or blogging.
