He shoots, he scores!

I don't fish much but I have ALWAYS caught at least one every single time I set up. I caught this chap after about 15 minutes
Elaine chopped his nose off!

but shortly afterward an old gentleman came walking by with his dog and that was that! Further angling was out of the question as he gave us chapter and verse about his entire working history plus details of every house he'd lived in.! 
"You're not packing up because of me?", he asked.
"No", I lied. Then the quiz started.
"Guess how old I am."
"Guess how old she (the dog) is."
"Guess her name, it begins with P" (WHAAAAT?)
Oh what the hell, might as well roll with the punches. We had a chat about life in general then I headed in using my tea (which wasn't quite ready) as an excuse. He was last seen waylaying a cyclist. I'm not sure, but I though I heard him say "Guess how old I am?" 😉
