Thread: OUCH

Well finally met up with Smiffy yesterday and arranged a wee trip out to ellesmere to chack another of my favourite spots for the elusive /canadas parries.After yarning with GSPF ,i showed smiffy around one area ,then itwas on to my favourite wee spot .arrive at end of road -whoa -wheres the track and parking area gone???Ok there was an access track through farmland ,or at least it was last time i was here .see track go up a wee bit and park up hop out and-striding toward us screaming obscenities
F..off you trepassing c...s,????security ...f. is a large polynesian bloke .I walked to tqward him hoping to explain our mission and ask if he knew of access but this appeared to inflame him even more. so we reboarded and did as ordered.Iwillbe asking F&G about it as about a decade ago they paid for a digger to clean the stream out and laid grvel along the edge virtually to the lake edge .???has DOC taken this over too and let it go feral.
sp we trundles off to boggy creek -Hmmmmlots of turbulent brown water in lake?/is it refilling ,lots of swans ,tree down across the track.go get baikal out of case ,load -wont shut .
Ok back up the horses -gun lock is on and who left lkey to it at home!!
smiffy to his credit was quite philosophical about the whole shebang and we did have few convivilas once we got back home . welcome to the crew!
