bloody work and weather

so winter on my local canal seems so long away and it was cold enough to keep it frozen for a good few weeks although it was cold it was never cold enough or frozen thick enough to drive on like these jokers below tried to do i think they were watching a few to many ice fishing videos .....

i think the other funny thing about this picture is the fact that the police have put a sign there saying accident er no shit..........

so i had some great plans to do a 4 morning hit on the local canal from dawn but that has now been kicked into touch because of work i now have to work 9 days split shifts solid so that's not happening although i may try to get an hour on the way to work although this does have problems for me ........

well i can set off for work a few hours early and the canal is actually on the way to work so i could in theory walk the canal to the city (about an hours slow walk) casting into my favorite swims on the way but if the fish are having it then I'm going to want to stay and fish and the fact i hold all the keys for the building it would mean nobody would get in ..mmmmmmmm

but when i think about chucking a subbug into the pre dawn glassy calm of the canal I'm actually quite tempted to do it ........

so otherwise than that it will be a fairly quite week on the blog although i will be posting bits and bods so please bear with me this week , and the Tuesday tie off will return next week as ill only be at home a few hours a day so simply wont have time to do much ......
