I've been attending another fellowship for the past 3 months or so. Generally 4 to 6 attendees.

Tonight I have the keys for the venue, someone else committed to conducting the meeting, another committed to refreshments, another committed to trreasurer. One guy was on Holiday. Arrive at 18:30 hours, set the room up, put the kettle on ready for 1915 start.

Guess what? No bugger turned up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Half past seven, stripped the room down, lock the venue up, went fishing.

Maybe it's just God's way of making sure you have a nice fresh trout for dinner LOL

I hate when that happens. Stupid fish anyway. Don't those fish know who I am. Well...I guess you can chalk up your entire encounter tonight as being "very fishy"...indeed. (LOL)...

The thing with fishing, is it's called fishing, it's not called catching. If you caught every time, then it'd be called catching.

I prefer spear fishing as I like to, at least, see what I'm missing

That's my kind of fish Dean...Here we call that sea wolf a "Kaku" and because of my fancy for catching and dining on that handsome devil my nick in fishing is Kakuman.  If you haven't dined on one yet...give it a shot (first of course cause they don't take kindly for getting bit into when alive...lol).
