well, I'm only a beginner fisher
so some sort of stick with a thin bit of string, a hook, and a worm. no wait, not a worm, a bit of another fish.
the funniest thing about the whole holiday was the laminated instructions that were all over our rented cottage. little square cards of doom that said various things, ranging from:
"Please don't pour fat down the sink as it clogs the drains. wipe it off with a bit of kitchen roll and dispose of it in the bin provided."
and (in the bathroom)
"Please leave the window open slightly ajar as much as possible in order to avoid the build-up of condensation"
and
"DO NOT dispose of anything other than loo roll down the toilet as the sewage pipes are very narrow and will become blocked if anything else is put down the toilet"
which are all fairly reasonable, and sane.
then we found this:
"IMPORTANT NOTICE (in 36pt, and underlined)
(then in bigger type and underlined twice) CUSHIONS MUST BE PLUMPED DAILY
These cushions are filled with man-made fibre which, whilst as comfortable as feather-filled cushions, can easily lose their shape and sit if not plumped on a daily basis. Please ensure you plump the cushions regularly."
edit@k2k6 - well, duh, of course sex! it's me! oh, and it's monday today isn't it? *blows kiss*
and the real ale, well, if it is real ale it will know how to fit itself inside something that is too small for it.
