Should be getting a fresh delivery mid week to bring over. I'll cross my fingers for some Salmon to but they haven't had much luck with that so far this season.

All gravy man. According to the missus I fart a lot so it should balance out :lol:

It also takes a fright train to get me out of bed, so just to warn you this is the only thing that wakes me up .

Sometimes it takes a couple of mins.

:lol: :lol: :D :D :lol: :lol:

I'd like to say I was his GQ cousin but I can't afford to own enough of them at once to qualify. :D

Looking forward to the trip and meeting ye. Bring on the mud! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Got a good delivery of flounder last night too. Won't have too fillet these ones to fit them in a pan like the last load but they are still a fair size.
