Filing is soooooooooooo boring. Three hours spent filing yesterday felt like a day in a mind-funk. How people can do that for a living beats me! I also managed to lose a month’s paperwork, but compared to a year’s papers neatly stored, I’m sure I’ll cope with finding that today.
On the fishing front, my man is camped out at The Manderson Trust trying to rid their No. 5 Lake of a rogue catfish – about 5 feet long – which in all probability weighs in excess of 70lbs. It has devastated the lake’s 1500 head of bream and we think it has a ‘mild’ case of “Rod Rage” where it has been hooked frequently, but never been landed.
After sitting there since Sunday, I asked Nick if he was bored and he said No! He says it’s a challenge… They have been devising strategies and tactics over the past 2 days and trying out all sorts of elaborate rigs, etc. I am very confident that if he can only hook it, he will land it. He is a very experienced Cat-man! The last Wels he landed (with my help!), weighed 165lbs, so I’m pretty certain this one’ll be just as much fun!
Speaking of beasties… look what we had to deal with over the weekend: An ELF in the bathroom and slugs bonking in the garden – not much point gardening when they’re reproducing on my lawn, is there? (Mind, that’s an assumption as I’m no biologist…)
Yuck! Big isn’t it? About 4″ long (10cm). 
And the slugs were as thick as my middle finger… ewwwwwww!
