It was a bit of a disaster today.

I got up early this morning to go fishing somewhere different. I thought I overshot start point so went to Slapton sands instead. Never been before but I had three rods to try everything.

Pulled up, got my gear out and headed down the beach.

The sky was blue, soft warm breeze, calm sea, dead body washed up on the beach, seagulls playing.... hmmm hold up.... the corpse I saw on the beach probably isn't an everyday thing, nor the Police, or the section of beach taped up, nor the coastguard there, or the ambulance so scrap that bit.

Once everyone had gone it carried on going downhill with no bites at all. Tried floating, pulley rig, cod rig, 1up 1 down rig and even feathering. Nada.

To make matters even worse the sun was hotter than I thought and I now have a white ring on my face where my sunglasses were.

/sigh, shoulda stayed in bed :-)

Better luck tomorrow me thinks :)

What was really gross was a couple of hours after the body had been removed the grockles started arriving and a family setup camp exactly where the body was.... ewwwwww :)

We had the baby scan today and I woke up this morning at 4.30am nervous as hell and praying everything was ok.

The scan went fine but they got the dates wrong. They thought she was 20 weeks but she's only 16 so they couldn't tell us what sex the baby is :(

Got a great scan of the baby and we now have to wait until Sept to find out the sex :-(

It looks like I won't be posting every day as I have been for a year now. I have launched a few new sites recently and most require daily updates so between them and my other jobs time is getting scarce for the time being.

I'm doing a lot of work now to bring old sites and newer ones more in line with the UK laws with regards to disabled access to a web site which becomes a legal requirement this October. I bit the bullet and paid the £150 for the Bobby programme because having to wait a minute between each page was taking too long when you are updating hundreds and hundreds of pages. Work so far:

http://www.torbayfishing.com/ has been revamped already and now passes Grade AAA on Bobby, W3C HTML and CSS. I wondered how I could go beyond the highest recommendations so I thought for a while and then added a hidden navigation into the page to allow people using text-to-speech and text only browsers to bypass the links on each page and jump straight to the information they want. Normal browsers can't see all this so it's pretty sweet.

http://www.free-wallpaper.co.uk/This now passes the highest grade "AAA" on Bobby and well as W3C HTML and CSS.

My main web design site has had a make over and is also Grade AAA on Bobby as well as W3C HTML and CSS on all it's pages.
