A Wet Start To The Days Fishing,

off we went to spend Sunday afternoon at Charlie's fishing park,

and it rained,

but soon the sun came out so it was lets get to it!

Diana was not taking any chances and stayed in the hut,

now it was time to dry the umbrellas out, by this time Nick, Maureen and Ta-Taa had arrived,

shortly followed by Mike and Riza, Nick looks pensive whilst Maureen and Ta-Taa look on,

a dragon fly takes a rest,

Diana decided to have a try at fishing, but caught a tree!

then Nick caught a Pla Nin, (tilipia),

it was a nice size, about a kilo,

the sun is going down as the shadows get longer,

then it was back to Mike and Riza's for a casserole, but with a special ingredient, dumplings!

and lots of vegetables,

Riza was busy serving everything up,

it tasted delicious, dumplings just like being back in the UK!

then after the meal it was outside for a some more wine and a chat,

then disaster! Ta-Taa want to go outside and have a look around, in trying to get through the bars of the gate she got well and truly stuck,

but Nick managed to get back inside after a bit of a struggle, we then had another guest call in, I do not know what it was called but it did not stay to long,

and this was a surprise, a cribbage board, so we had a few games of cribbage to round off the evening as we finished the wine,

by now the cat had recovered from the surprise of seeing Ta-Taa in her kitchen and eating her food!

we stayed at Mike and Riza's over night and left about 9.30 in the morning, just as we arrived home the heavens opened up, just getting from the car to the house we both got soaked to the skin, the rain did not let up for over an hour and of course rain = clouds= no Internet connection, so the blog is a bit late.
