Well!! I'd better get on with tying flies.

Sorry to hear about George. He was a great soccer (football) player, besotted by the deamons of fame.
Will you tie one that resembles a football in his memory?

Donald , sorry about George .
If its any consolation It is snowing here in British Columbia too , the high lakes are froze , and the wind is howling .Hang in there buddy. Its just 155 more sleeps till spring thaw and fishing fishing fishing .
Sad passing of a formerly brilliant footballer. I was lucky enough to have spent an afternoon with him at the tail end of his career. What a day and what a nice guy to a bunch of aspiring young "soccer" players.
I raise my glass to George Best.... a foremost reminder of what happens when you regularly drink past closing-time!!
As a footballer, he was good, but not in the same league as Pele, Maradonna, etc.... as a drunk, he was in a league of his own.. and, as an example to others of the potential effects of alcohol abuse, he excelled.
RIP George!
Dittos to above..and it is snowing in upstate NY also... Good day to tie flies, play an audio book and light a fire in the fire place. A tip of me glass to you all.
