  • Rubbish

    Some Australian woman saying people who had never thought about fishing before asking questions. In Penzance. In Cornwall. Where 45% of people’s income comes from ... fishing. Get a few less idiots who happen to fit the under 30 and a comic/ poet demand and let’s hear some intelligent discussion.
