Sometimes I really hate people :-)

So as you can see from my photo on the top left here I was quite pleased with my dogfish. That was until Andy emailed me a photo of his catch the other night, a tope:



Aaaarrrggghhhhhh why did you have to ruin such happy times for me dammit :)

Now I have to work on super imposing a photo of me leaning against it looking dead chuffed ;-)

Anyway it was 10pm last night and Andy got hold of me on MSN and asked what time was the high tide. I pointed him to my tide times page and he was thinking of going out. I said I wouldn't mind joining him. So at 11pm last night off I went down to Princess pier and we met up and did some fishing. It was snowing and the temperature was minus 1 with a wind chill dropping that down to minus 5. It was the perfect time to test the limits of my penn flotation suit. The results were my arms, body and legs were snug and warm (just a jumper and shorts on under it) but my feet, head and hands were freeeeeezing. Another great lesson learnt :)

We finished at 3am just as another bout of snow was about to drop. Andy if you read this thanks for last night, I enjoyed the company.

Because of this web site I am meeting a lot of really nice people and I think of myself as pretty lucky.
