Well another good read Mr Fish conjured up images of Wallace & gromit “the wrong trousers film“. At the start. At least you caught. Know where you are coming from on the health side of things it’s hard going. Hope spring arrives early for you there’s only one problem though. You know what the...

Yes likewise but no luck. PS keep your reports coming they will help get me through my month off.

Nice going!

Know what you mean, was down there myself yesterday from 2pm till 3am didn’t even get a bite till low around 2am & only managed 1 dogfish on one of many last casts .boy was I glad to see him sliding up the shingle certainly is hard going at the moment
