I went to the zoo yesterday and saw a baguette in a cage. The zookeeper told me it was bread in captivity.

If anyone is interested the RNLI Poole Lifeboat station by the old town bridge has its open day on Sunday 5th August starts at 11am until 5pm Water demos, BBQ, raffle and "have a go stalls" A good family event Everyone is welcome Dave

Hope all goes well, you deserve success and a few fish after all the ups and downs. Allan.

Good luck Andy, hope it all works out

Are you taking anyone with you ? A buddy boat would be good. Hope all goes well Hooky. Jim

Here’s hoping all goes well for you 🤞

Hope you get some good luck Hooky you deserve it. The boat looks too good to give up without a fight. As Martin says Fingers and Everything crossed for you from me too

The weekend is looking promising and smaller tides. I hope all works out for you as you deserve a bit of luck, and maybe a fish ?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fingers and everything else crossed for you Hooky

The ups and downs of life (sigh) looked like this boat would have to be sold , endless hours wasted, it has been a bad year I had lost it , fishing was of little meaning or interest , despite loads of support from my friends ( you know who you are chaps ) . The weather has been brilliant these last weeks, one thing that kept me (slightly ) sane was sitting down by baiter park and watching others having fun. At last I could book a few days off work , just maybe one last go to see if I could get the carburettors on, get the battery charged and then if it didn't work at least I tried my best. New oil in tank , fresh fuel and she started first time , didn't know wether to or .. After making the huge decision to also fit new bearings to the trailer, sorting out all those loads of little jobs that needed doing she's sat ready to go for a maiden launch in the next few days. I had to let my Christchurch mooring go , so once again a huge thanks to Darvester as he is not using his for the rest of the season, if all goes well on her first run out she will now have a temporary home . Even if I get a run up the river ( yes the auxiliary runs ok) IT will be a positive outcome. COme on weather. , let the winds drop , who knows I might even get out to catch my first fish of the season !!!
