We Were Up Early,

and out fishing,


 blue skies,

 with not much cloud promised it was to be a hot day, and it was,

 we were joined by Nick and Maureen,

 the first fish of the day soon made it's way to the kitchen, then breakfast was served,

 it was 2 - 1 to Nick when I hooked a nice sized fish,

 and it was a real surprise,

 it was a carp,

 in all of our visits here it is the first one we have caught,

 fishing was slow, with just occasional bites and even less fish,

 Diana and Maureen were still a bit hungry, 

 so a dish of chicken fried rice was ordered, 

 then a second surprise for me, another carp, none before, now two in a day,  

 Nick decided to change tactics and changed tackle, 

 he was after the big ones,

but they still only count as one! if you fancy a day out the Paifon Fishing Park is off of Soi Nub Plan Wan, (spelt as it sounds), turn into the Soi from Sukhumvitt, once in the Soi go over the railway crossing and continue for a couple of miles, the road starts to go downhill, near the bottom of it you will see a big pink building on the left where we normally turn right into the old fishing park, do not turn right, keep going until you see Soi 24 and turn right, there is a 7-11 on the corner, continue for about a mile it is past Soi 14, the concrete road comes to a strange cross road,

take the one with the sign on it and the park is on the left hand side, and the score for today? 8-6, to Nick,

 we made a move back home after a coffee and a cake baked by Nick, arriving home we swapped the truck for the motorbike and went to Friendship, we needed some beef for tomorrows beef stew and picked up a joint of pork as we are at home on Sunday, arriving home we watched a few from Cops and the Antique Roadshow, then feet up for another episode of Game Of Thrones, after that as we have an early start and a busy day tomorrow, also because of that this will be the only post today, we were then off to bed.
