Hat Trick

Well, that's three fish in three outings for the Blue and White "Tuna Toast" lure. Lob it out for a couple of hours behind the boat and Boom. Easy, dunno what all the fuss is about! This morning went fishing for dinner as we are pretty well out of fresh food (apart from the odd vegetable). Dusk has been successful before so thought I would try dawn (talking of Dawn - I hear a good nght was had by all at the GC. Music courtesy of Donald and Freddie). So, out it went and two hours later a lovely small Mahi Mahi ( aka dorado) was hauled on board. Got two nice fillets with each one being just right for dinner for the two of us. I think I have eaten it before but cannot remember what it was like so looking forward to eating well tonight. I do npot know if anyone has left comments on teh blog site but I cannot see them from my end so apologies if you are expecting a reply.

Lack of Soap

Yuk, I hear you say. No soap and no washing for two weeks. Worry not, the title of the piece is less to do with ablutions and more to do with operas. You know how you can go away for a very long time and then come home, switch on Coronation Street and pick up where you left off as if you had never been [...]

Yuk, I hear you say. No soap and no washing for two weeks. Worry not, the title of the piece is less to do with ablutions and more to do with operas. You know how you can go away for a very long time and then come home, switch on Coronation Street and pick up where you left off as if you had never been away? Then you go through a guilt trip that you are getting drawn into meaningless drivel and should be ashamed of yourself and should really be following something much more important. Like Brexit.

(spoiler alert for my American friends - the following rubbish relates to the various soap operas popular in the UK) I have not heard a single word about the subject for two weeks so have no idea if May held or pulled her meaningless vote again. Or is she still PM? Has Corbyn been caught poaching rabbits from Home Farm or Mr Speaker goosed the barmaid in the Quenn Vic. Has Rees Mogg been enjoying free cinema tickets by comparing the CommonMarket.com. Has Donald Trump tweeted about his upcoming cameo role in Emmerdale and will George Clooney run for office.

As with the regular soaps, no doubt I'll switch on and pick it up exactly where I left off.
