This page has been created for the purpose of displaying the journal that (having finally caught up with all the back years in 1998) I have been writing each year concerning the annual Barclays Bank Inter-District Sea Angling Competition. It has various interruptions and digressions but broadly speaking comprises a chapter for each year that I have taken part in it – i.e. from 1984 onwards.
The way that WordPress works means that the latest posting is always at the top of the page – great for a normal blog but not so good if you are trying to publish something that needs the earliest entries at the top so that it can be read downwards without the reader having to jump back to the top of each new chapter!
However, in the “edit” facility I have the power to change the “published on” date to whatever I want. So, if I change it so that the latest chapter added has the EARLIEST date everything will come out in the easiest possible order for reading.
That’s what I’ll do then.
Just read from the top and ignore the (apparent but false) date of the posting.
I’d also like to draw attention to the comment just below the title of this “blog” . All personal names (except those I’ve overlooked by accident) are restricted to First Name plus first letter of Surname – mainly because I haven’t asked any of the people concerned if they would care to be identified by their full name.
If you’re reading this and want to be called by your full name please let me know.
UPDATE:
For ease of reading I have decided to break the re-dated Chapters into (roughly) 5 year chunks. I have re-dated this bit to December, the 2 part Introduction to November so that you can narrow it down by using the “Archive” facility in the side bar to the right of the text. The Chapters may be found as follows:
Up to and including 1989 – September 2009
Up to and including 1994 – August 2009
Up to and including 1999 – July 2009
Up to and including 2004 – June 2009
Up to and including 2009 – May 2009
