Old fishing photos 11This friday from lunchtime onwards you can visit Chiswick Town Hall and spend the afternoon looking through collections of vintage fishing tackle all broken down into lots. Using simple but well built tackle from a bygone era is an experience many of us now cherish when escaping to the waters-edge. On saturday you will get the chance to bid on such items from midday onwards.

As ever the Tuesdayswim and Arcadia will be donning suitable attire and showing you the selection of fishing rods on offer.

Twice a year The Tuesday Swim and Andrews of Arcadia meet for the biannual Angling Auctions at Chiswick town hall, West London. Viewing is available from Friday lunchtime and the main show commences at twelve noon on Saturday the 6th April.

This not so un-likely pairing shall as usual be holding fort on the rod section, please come along and re-arrange the rods from their allotted places and enjoy our anguished faces as said rods are moved back INTO THE CORRECT ORDER!

If only the military was organised with such efficiency and precision.

While helping out at Angling Auctions on the 26th March, this year, I came across this little cased gobio gobio, the case measuring 11 inches wide. The gudgeon was set up by J Cooper and Sons. Caught by F W Jefferies in a private pool in Bournebrook near Birmingham on the 15th August 1936.

This goliath weighed 3ozs and sold in the sale from what I can remember at £5,500.00!

Shame, I fancied this one for my book shelf.

Springtime in Normandy, shooting complete. Four seasons in the forest, just one more season to go, this is a truly inspiring and personal journey. #independantfilmmaking

Taking a few hours with Andrei Tarkovsky today, leaves you in a dream (or nightmare). Unsettling perhaps? Beautiful - definitely. Reassuringly unworldly? Oh yes. #andreitarkovsky #stalker

I’ve been here before but this is reassuringly familiar, an antidote to the boutique homogenous lifestyle that is rife in our city. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
