Such a lovely bloke.
He was partial to the old Fox Specialist chairs, so when I stuck mine up for sale Paul messaged me within minutes and said he would buy it. When I arrived at his cottage he immediately set the chair up and plonked himself on it and we nattered for a little while. I could have stayed all afternoon talking nonsense in his garden (Which both himself and Mrs F obviously loved tending to) but I had my own Mrs in the car, so had to shoot off.
Enjoy your peaceful retirement Mr F.

I've just watched the Cypography film and just wow!
I've never watched anything similar and ended up liking a guy I've never met more than I do Paul Forward. What an absolutely brilliant attitude to, well, everything he spoke about. If everyone used his approach to angling way more fish would be put on the bank and fisheries would be generally nicer places to be.
I salute you Mr F.

Thanks for that. Just watched. I'm not a subscriber so haven't watched it before.
Nice gesture if they have just made that public. It is really very engaging. Usually I can't watch any carp media stuff.

Posted early on re condolences, but I have just watched the Cypography interview.... simply fantastic 👏 PF was a thoughtful gent in today's Carping rat race. Took time to provide an honest answer on every topic or question..some interviewees answer with the expected reply..not PF.

I have a friend that is a decent all round angler but had never
Tried the 'modern carp scene'. With bivvys and buzzers etc. Until
I took him with me a few times last summer.
He's.been regularly sending me questions or links involving markers
And wraps distance sticks, zig rigs. He's watching YouTube stuff
And I can see He's getting info overload. And as Paul says you shouldn't just
Do stuff for the sake of it. So I've sent him the link to this.
