Got some excellent students this week...18 year olds, interested in politics and the Arts...
BG on hols so being suitably teenagey and lying in..he does feed les animaux, though, so no complaints.

  1. A few weeks ago I had the great pleasure of catching some mackerel from the back patio of the house we rented in Dartmouth.

    They were smoked by our next door neighbour and I then made them into mackerel pate, which tasted wonderful.

    I haven't been fishing for a long time. I'd forgotten how good it feels to eat something you've caught with your own hands.

    The primeval instinct lives on...

  2. It is extraordinary, isn't it? Hope you were in Dartmouth while the sun was shining....It would have been good to BE a fish for the last few days!

  7. Ahh...fish sexing...well, I recently bought these girls and so I know they are triploid females! Enviro Agency doesn't like rainbows capable of breeding...........

  8. You have done it now. I am going to spend an awful lot of time boning (ged it?) on fish sex. Will be in touch in a few months' time ! Don't approve of lottery. I am starting to save for a battered Tiger Moth. Toodle pip.
