gonzo Posted June 13 Author Share Posted June 13 Spoke to a sea fisherman dude here today. Normally stocks of sharks and stuff here by this time of year, fuck all out there as its too cold. That's driving what they usually feed off up and cocking the whole job up. Mentioned summet about pike up stream too but I'd switched off by then. Thornton gala was washout on Sunday and the gay pride events on Saturday were hit with 30mph freezing cold north West winds and killed the whole event. Fuck knows how the cricket season is fairing elsewhere because there fuck all got going here yet. We are going to reach a stage where we just can't do fuck all outside.

batton carrier Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Up in the outer hebrides and it is Baltic. Locals say temps are way lower than normal. It is a lovely part of the world though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got some warmer weather at the moment, but apparently a front of rain will impact the North of Scotland and leave the rest of us alone. Which Isle are you on?

At some point I'd like to do similar. Already booked a place for next year in the Highlands (further north than I've been before) but I'd like to visit these islands- and the inner ones too!

Probably his last big trip well his last with any big walks he is 13 in a few weeks and he is starting to struggle on long walks.

He's doing bloody well. Our 3 collies are a bloody handful to be honest, so finding off-lead walks can be tricky. All 3 on the lead together are impossible. Then finding a cottage to take 3 can be difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
