CONTEST: Holiday Story Time

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

The results are in for our first ever contest give-away. We have had a lot of very good entries and had a really hard time deciding the winner of the fishing story contest. But at the end of the day we had to decide a winner.

To accomplish that - we ended up engaging a panel of English teachers and writers to help us with the decision. The link to all of the entries, including the overall winner is at the bottom of this letter, congratulations to everyone that entered, I enjoyed sharing your stories and seeing your pictures.

Because we liked them so much, every entry is going to receive a Holiday Manor T-shirt, so we need you to email us your addresses and t-shirt sizes as well.

Plans for the summer season are well under way. I am a big fan of blues and jazz music so we are trying to line up some musicians for select weekends. We are working on the first weekend of August, I think this long weekend would be a great time for a mini-music-fest in Battersea. So if you enjoy live music in your evenings, the weekend of August 4,5,6 will be a great weekend to book into the Manor.

And here is the fishing story link, enjoy:

Hi Suddsy and Matt,

Thanks for the stories guys, it was a real treat to read them.

I'll be fishing at the Manor during Pike opening weekend May 12th, and hopefully I can put up some stories of my own to share.

James.
