Mixed results as the season draws to a close. I have had several sessions on my other favourite river, two at the local canal for Pike and one down the Kelvin. I met Mike down at my other river for a few hours, the river was slightly high and the colour of tea but did [...] I love getting sent books by authors; it gives me a warm fuzzy glow inside that someone actually might value what I say about their writings.
