Stillwater salmon fly fishing in England
Updated 14/02/12 Well it is Valentine's day.
22/01/12 Maybe the aeroplane gets there too fast. Much more enjoyable is a leisurely trip on a yacht, provided there is someone on lookout duty.
Of course the best way to go is by plane once you've got everyone of the wings and into the cabin.....
If you keep picking up hitchhikers the back of the limosine ( yes, we had to upgrade to get them all in) gets a bit full. Give them a glass of wine though and everyone gets on famously.
02/01/12 Now the festive season is over and the car is fixed we must get back on the road. No stopping now except for the occasional hitchhiker we may come by on the way.......
23/12/11 Merry Christmas and Happy New year.
14/12/11 And if one does break down it's very useful to have a mechanic around. 
03/12/11 Here's the car to take me away, but I can't make the driver out. Is that a smile or an evil stare? Can anyone understand them? Does she know something I don't? I feel very small in this passenger seat. 
25/11/11 Ok we've used the key and opened the door, but you must always let ladies through a door first. I wonder why that should be?
20/11/11 Here it is, the key! It's not white but it must mean girl in white, I hope this doesn't get too cryptic, but we do need to escape and get back to the mermaids.
17/11/11 I had this dream, well I dream all the time but I think this one meant something. This vision pictured here came to me from the forces of light and said 'look for the white key'
10/11/11 This captivity thing has gone on long enough. Surely there must be a way to get past my guards and escape the forces of darkness. If only I could get through that door, but look what's in the way.
05/11/11 All I can do is sit here and pass the time. At least I've got a camera to get some pictures of my captors. Black bikini seems to be their uniform.
03/11/11To say that things didn't out well is a vast understatement. The girls have taken over and imposed martial law. Life under an occupying force is very grim just look at the treatment I get.
28/10/11 Now I know why they were smiling. No sooner had I bagged the shot and turned round, when over the dunes came this lot, armed to the teeth. Things are not looking very good at all............... 
26/10/11 Maybe it is all over and I got this snap of them running away, only why are they smiling? 
20.10/11 Did you really think I would let the side down and get downed by those big red gloves? Of course not! Here is the proof that I got the knockout but I don't think it's over yet.........
17/10/11 Not only can I not figure things out (common man problem) but things have got worse. The boxing gloves are out and I'm getting beaten up. Help!
14/10/11 I offered a couple of them a cup of tea but I don't think they are very happy. How am I meant to know what's up? Especially if they just look like this and say nothing. It will take me a few days to figure it out...............
10/10/11 The work has been completed and the anglers are back round the lake so I've told the crew to take a break from all the hard graft. They have been working so hard that some of them fell asleep before they even finished their drinks. 
06/10/11 The fishery opens tomorrow and I think the work crew have packed their bags and departed. I say 'think' because I opened a door in the lodge and came across this one who'd got left behind. If any of you anglers find any more just let me know...........
30/09/11 I organised the crew to spruce up the fishing lodge and thought it was a good thing to delegate, but it turned out to be a bit of a mistake. I rescued this poor stool just in time from being 'improved'. Do they look like skilled woodworkers to you? They chose this white carpet; you anglers are going to have to make sure you get every bit of mud off your boots, home from home!
27/09/11 I'm not sure about the hat worn backwards but the gloves are on and we're off to work.
21/09/11 I can report progress! I have managed to get one of them out of a bikini and into some workwear. I now have a volunteer to go up the step ladder when needed; but I can't work out why she has to go up the steps three at a time.
13/09/11 And now they are playing piggy-back, I really give up with this crew.
07/09/11 Ok I thought, maybe if I got a crew in then many hands would make light work, but it's no good. They just frolicked around the lake. Does it look like it to you that this lot would pull up weeds and shovel gravel? I think I'll have to do it myself.
30/08/11 During the close season there's lots of maintainence to catch up on and I need a bit of extra help. Trouble is you just can't get good workers. they just want to laze about a soon as the sun comes out and I can't concentrate on what I'm doing either.
