Yoga vs Vodka

  Are you a Yoga man or Vodka man? I used to practice yoga regularly for couple of years when I was in my early 30s, mainly to attract girls because I believed many of them find Yoga guys very attractive and cool. How miserable I was.. Oh dear. Would you use Vodka or Yoga to attract women? Then on a boring Sunday night I was watching a film ( I really can't remember what it was called) and they said something about the miracles of Vodka. I tried to ignore it, because I never liked vodka, but something made me to listen to it again. And I did. The guy (he looked like a wise but stupid old guy) was saying " They say milk gives you strength. Drink three glasses and try moving a wall. You can't. Drink three shots of vodka and it moves all by itself ". This interestingly strong saying made me grab a bottle of vodka and have a go. And did... The result was a total disaster. But it worked. I felt more attractive than doing yoga for single chicks. I was the coolest guy in tow

You will find information about the species you can catch, how to get, locations, tips and regulations. I saw a group of middle aged anglers, at Luton Airport, drinking and talking about their fishing adventures in different countries while I was waiting for my flight to Larnaca. I said hello and asked what species of fish they are dreaming of catching in Cyprus. They replied all together "the biggest fish in the sea" and we all laughed. As we chatted more and more, I noticed that none of them knew they actually could catch lots of fish in the reservoirs as well. They didn't even know freshwater fishing is possible on this tiny and dry Mediterranean island. To be honest, it didn't surprise me. Because, most of the people I talk about fishing in Cyprus have never heard about these amazing dams which are full of perch, carp, zander, bass,
