Communication Difficulties!

August 14th, 2005 · 5 Comments · River Kelvin Fishing

I want to discuss with you communication difficulties. Now the other day I got SHE WHO MUSY BE OBEYED to give me a lift up to the Glasgow Angling Centre to get some of that sealant stuff for my waders. On the way I mentioned that it would mean that I would be fishing on Sunday at the earliest. Now, I think that was a bit of a hint that I would be going fishing today. Anyway, yesterday I was texting someone about fishing on Sunday and I mentioned that the river was looking good after the day’s rain…I said I was looking forward to fishing the river on Sunday. Now I think that was another hint about going fishing today. Last night on my way home I asked her if she would drop me off at the river and she said no she was going out for a long run…..to me that was a bloody obvious hint that I was going fishing today….
So why when I woke up this morning, rolled over why did my beloved say “what are we going to do today….something nice?”
I said “I …er…I’m going fishing”

“YOU NEVER TOLD ME THAT”

    She Who Must be Obeyed

    Lately I’ve been reading a blog from a fly fisherman in Glasgow, Scotland - Urban Flyfishing on the Kelvin.
    I think what originally interested me is the fact that it is urban fishing - right in Glasgow. He can easily wade in for a couple of ho…

    [...] Surely you can identify with this post where he explains his attempts to get a “kitchen pass” so he can go fishing. [...]
