Started out,waking up to the sound of rain bouncing off the roof.I turned over and had another 30min sleep.but I was getting up to go Salmon fishing for a few hours before I had to go 40 miles into glasgow for a Hospital appointment.() anyway I caught a 7lb salmon (returned) but then had to head off to the smoke for my hospital appointment .got caught in an horrendous traffic jam 200 yrds away from the Hospital,took 30mins to get to hospital carpark. 10 times round carpark, I eventually managed to get parked with 5 min to go.got to the reception and said ''just made it in time'' to which the receptionist replied .Well done mr T,but your a day early.I then cried.I thought, back to the salmon or 20 miles less and fish for brownies at my club water on the last day before closing.It was again pissing down,so the Brownies won.I got there with 4 hours to go before dark,pissing down again.drunk some tea. 3hrs left.got a boat out.and managed to catch a couple of brownies along with a few missed takes.so the day ended with a high after a most definite low.

Must have been a real up and down day. Not only a day early for your appointment but a month late with your report

or was it really 6/9/11 or should it be 6/10/11?
