I've had plenty of "jacks" on the canal while spinning for perch (which are also allegedly a "good eat").I wouldn't like to get a spinner caught in my beard
Pike are allegedly a "forgotten feast"

If every coarse angler in this country removed one or two fish every time they caught, within a few years there would be nothing left to fish for; (return them), don't get like the east europeans who are over here who are decimating our fisheries.

You've nothing to worry about there T, as much as I enjoy "catch and release" fishing, I'm not a lover of eating fish

That's not a proper one! A proper one gouges & bites cobs out of you before it can be converted to headgear!

I would think that a Muslim barber would be great in shaving beards after all quite a few of that religion who have beards. Surely there would be some in Accy.

Thought I don't think they are supposed to trim their beards just their moustaches and a lot of (none practising) muslims have those thin line beards that personally I cannot stand

I trim mine whenever it gets in the way of my drinking, I hate my moustaches supping more than I can, cut it whenever needed.
