The 11th… …maybe

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Not doing too well with the soil as still have a lot to move.. Had a call yesterday might be back offshore come the 11th.. Hmm that could mean anything but to be truthful I’m not too bothered right now, felt a bit down last week and I have to just remember that nothing is [...]

Toil and Soil

Saturday, May 30th, 2009

Nearly finished lifting Patio up today and started to move some of the soil, err I had hoped to move half but that didn’t work out as it became clear that it was a much bigger job. Also didn’t help I managed to twist my back moving the patio slabs, opps. I’m hopeful that I [...]

Patio.. Not

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Decided awhile back that I needed to remove the Patio and sort out the problem with it, it’s crap. So started to lift it up today and managed to get a couple of the slabs up before apathy set it and I just gave up. Actually a lot to do with moving the top soil [...]

Huge Bivvy!

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

I think Angel wanted very much to go fishing today as Kirstie and Dan were here.. But as my eye is still playing up I decided that maybe going to a dusty windswept place was not such a good idea. So instead we all trundled into Brighton for a wander around. I decided to try [...]

Laptops..

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Well bought some laptops a week or so ago and still seen no sign of them so after kicking off I finally got tracking details and lo and behold they have only just been sent ARGHH!!! Spend a day doing bits and bobs and not really zoned in at all.. Very strange.. Rahl pops round [...]

Eye Balls, Videos & Warhawk Tab

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Well this morning was interesting as my Eye Ball sort of felt a little better and so it should as it has been a right nightmare the last couple of days, just like me I guess. Popped into Langney with Angel and bought some food and a Magazine, a carp one for a change, before [...]

Bigger Bivvy?

Monday, May 25th, 2009

Have you ever heard of “eBay Rage”? Well after looking about all day we finally spotted a nice big bivvy, to double up for Angel if she ever decides the creepy crawlies are ok to deal with. And find a lovely one going for £170 + £20 delivery.. Now the thing is they sell this [...]

Chains Self Storage

Sunday, May 24th, 2009

Well looks like we have become a store for peoples bits and bobs and I have to admit not happy to have tons of someone else’s stuff in our place but then again would prefer them to save it here than lose it to someone else, or have it stolen in digs. So I tidy [...]

Another nice carp..

Saturday, May 23rd, 2009

Well the morning saw me rise again to a smaller carp this time of about 10 and a half pounds at 2am.. Had a choc drink and chat to one of the guys setup next to me before hitting the sack and getting my head down Anyway the morning brought Angel and a couple of [...]

Nice morning busy lake

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

So I was woken at 4am on the dot by an angry carp that I managed to finally land after a good scrape of 10 minutes or so.. Came in at 11lb not bad although I was snug and warm in my bivvy it was a welcome surprise. And for once I didn’t lose any [...]
