Martin, So this Round is just written off then? Not re-secheduled?

And therefore makes Grafham a bit of a one day lottery?

Off to Grafham for 2 days on Tuesday night, cannae wait!

Yep!.... in all honesty, the numbers compared to years ago are so 'down', I would seriously welcome a 'one off' heat.... Same for everyone mate!

We were on Grafham today - horrendous conditions.

I was not sure we would make it back to the Lodge this afternoon and the boat was four inches deep in water by the time we did

Can just imagine you Charlie, smirk on your face whilst bouncing the wee man up and down like a bucking bronco on the pointy end and giving him a good soaking. Sadistic b@stard.

Don't worry, I would have done the same

The Pirate.

Me to. I was disgusted by the number of boats in the nature reserve. I know the wind was bad but rules are rules. I counted 10 boats in there in the afternoon and what made it worse were the anglers who were bragging about the big browns they had caught and killed in there.

Yes, someone else commented on that. There was only one warden on in the afternoon and I felt was struggling to keep on top of things. I am surprised they let us stay out as that wind got up in the afternoon.
