    Sundry pictures,fish mainly!

    I thought that you might be interested in some pictures that have been downloaded onto my computer by friends and family , to keep me up to date with what is going on.

    A wild brownie caught in the gloaming about to go back.




    Not me! My brother. A reasonable pike.





    A better pike about to be returned to the loch.





    Two friends that cycled the length of mainland UK to raise a huge amount of money for charity. Well done them! Orkney in the back ground.





    Our new smaller home, only five bedrooms. No drafts, no damp and central heating that works!

    Those are fish to dream about, I see a fly rod and a spinner there in the boat, wondering which was used to catch those beautiful fish.

    Best wishes to you sir, in all you are and all you do.

    Thank you kind sir. We catch the trout on the fly and pike on spinners, it looks as though the chaps were hedging their bets. We need a good wave to catch the trout, which are the prime target, and it looks as though it was too calm for that, so pike fishing was the only choice left.

    Either way it looks like a great day just being out there, even if there were no fish caught. That is why it is called fishing, otherwise it would be called "catching". The bonus of a lifetime for me would be if I caught some beautiful creatures like those. Thank you again for sharing.

    Fine catches there. I've only fished some smaller streams and lakes. Never caught anything to come close to those beauties!

    Wonderful shots, now I am hungry for some fish for some reason.
    Glad that you now have a draft free house.
