I was hoping to get out this morning but SWMBO's car needed a service and she's nicked mine... so I'm stuck indoors on a stunning day... but I'll keep busy sorting my toys for the annual sojourn to Docklow Pools... off saturday week, a whole 7 days of fishing, eating and drinking copious amounts of ale... does it get any better than that....? :Cool: :drool:
