Could be! How did you guess? Although, rashly, I'm hoping to get enough to have a trip out with FishyPaul this week too. You know, get in some practice before my buddy arrives from HK!

Cheers,
JB.

4 Lobsters! Jammy Git!! I've never, ever, hooked a single 1 and I just love Lobbie!

I do hope it's not going to blow up later this week - but my diary seems to be filling up fast, I'll do drop you a PM tomorrow.

Shaun, what brand do you smoke? - I'll see if there's anything he or I can do. Just quit myself - still miss 'em like mad when I'm fishing!

Cheers,
JB.

Digging update - fork being cremated, and the ashes spread on Sandwich Bay .. What a laugh - 1.5 hours for 12 yellowtails. God knows how I used to do that for beer money - these days I'd be lucky to earn a cheeky half!

Didn't help that I got some duff tidal info from the BBC website (or misread it lol), and by the time the tide was off to the more promising ground, I was knackered.

I'd also like to say that my "office pansie" hands, are now ripped to shreds by that nasty sand! Bugger that for a lark .. 15 quid in petrol to get there, and another £9.50, spent on 2 score of blow and a score of yellows afterwards, so I can actually go fishing tomorrow!

Tee-hee, brought back good old memories, though!

Cheers,
JB.

Spot on John Boy. Good read..... good sense of humour as well mate, you must have, going all that way and ruining your callous free office hands!

Only time I go a diggin is when I am on the Taw flounder fishing, mush easier dowm there for office pansies like wot I am!

Good luck tomorro mate.

Cheers chaps .. I'll be on later tomorrow to report the (lack) of success ...

As you well know, Shaum, one requires a sense of humour to be a long-term devotee of angling! I reckon if we all got together for an annual outing, there'd be no lack of laughter!!
