About Lesley

I'm a Southerner living in the friendly seaside town of Withernsea, East Yorkshire. I have a column in the Withernsea & District Community News - the paper is distributed to homes along the East Coast and inland. The newspaper is readily available for tourists and from local outlets.

My experience is animal rescue, fostering and adopting sick animals, protecting my own pets, saving money on food and veterinary medication whilst buying the right products for my pets, and holidaying in dog-friendly locations. Our cat (Tabitha), our dog (Teddy, a Romanian rescue), and budgies (Ron & Reggie) are often in videos, or articles written from experience with them - but again designed to help you.

Dave Kay is a sea angling qualified casting instructor and professional bait digger. He was a tournament caster U.K.S.F. and his sea fishing knowledge extends from the 1970s. He narrates energetic, upbeat fishing videos on YouTube. You can hear his Withernsea Whale commentary at The Independent too. So please subscribe to his playlist and watch out for fishing tutorials and reviews.
