Tigger,

 

I know exactly how he will get on. He will reluctantly endure a day of "catching" carp and tell you how delightful it is to catch a pocket full of dinks.

Jeeeez, how bad is this rain? I think even if it stops now, which it gives no indication of doing as it's hammering down right now, the rivers round my neck of the woods would take a couple of wee

It wasn't that bad down here in the event but a few sharp showers spoilt the day. Tomorrow and Friday look a washout. The venue I spent a few hours at yesterday was awash with mud which I hate. You co

I've keep on hearing about dinks - what exactly are dinks??

It's phone speak for small fish Martin.

 

Although it really means any fish that needs some finesse in order to catch it.

It's been like that on and off for the last month up here.

 

This the present situation on all rivers in the area

Not just the river Aire, but if you zoom out, as the orange markers show, just about every river in Yorkshire.

Bit of drizzel here! my saw might go rusty !

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

 

Mathew 4:19

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

It's an age thing chesters, it happens to the best of us.wheelchair.gif

 

We've had over 4 hours of incessant heavy rain this morning, and it's forecast to stay for at least another 20 hours!

Most of the roads are like rivers, with water filled potholes waiting for the unsuspecting motorist, I think the local garages are going to be busy.

This rain is bloody awful. I now live on what was once a working pig farm. It's been neglected for the best part of 20 years and everything is muddy or leaks. Or both. Just walking from the bungalow to the office is miserable!

 

On the plus side. some of the puddles here now look like they are ready for stocking biggrin.png
