Haven't you got a bivvy Bravo, then you could have waited for the carp to come on. Seriously, my fishing has been screwed by the river being in spate and too much wind for sea fishing.

Question

What's REALLY p*ssing me off [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] on my side of the Pennines, is that EVERY night it's cloudless as the sun sets, stays that way all night, still the same as the sun rises at about 6am , then begins to cloud over, and is completely cloudy and usually raining by 10am.
WHY????????????????????[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Alcazar,

It is because you put "Sunny(?) Scunny" in your From part of your profile.

So, as an employee of those people who do the weather, I reprogrammed the supercomputer/space bourne laser thingy to modify the weather at your location so that is nice an clear when the sun is below the horizon but rains when above. Serves you right.

About £100 to fix it I'm afraid

Cheers

Ian
