15/05/2017 Sorry yesterday vanished and no post was done. Here are the photos from yesterday.

Maximum temperature 23C, minimum 10C.  15 km/h SW wind.   Dry
 N.B. We are away as from tomorrow for a few days, so there may be not be any updates until next weekend when I should be back to normal.
The fishing competition up the road from us..
as above...
The green tent waiting for the later repas (luncheon), The small tent on the left, is the bar for the non fishermen where we would be found !
Waiting for their meal...
The prize giving, they were some great prizes.
The cooks in the their makeshift kitchen.
Loved the old tractor, there are many of them still working here.
Under scrutiny.

      I think every one caught at least one trout, some more, even the kids all managed at least one. The trout they could keep, but any carp caught had to go back into the water. Cheers Diane

    I'd rather than drink than fish. Have fun.
