Well we got to go fishing. Chris and I met up at Titchmarsh Marina at 08:30hrs. It was minus 4 celcius according to the temp sensor on the car and it felt it. There was frost everywhere including the deck of the yacht Lollipop which made things a tad slippery. All in all a [...]

Well, looks like the boat fishing trip is on tomorrow. Weather permitting I will meet up with Chris at the Titchmarsh Marina, Walton on the Naze at 08:30hrs tomorrow (Tues 30th)
