Trip 18 Carp Fishing - 2022

I'm very lucky to be out this week at all as the three other members of the family are ill, one with covid for the second time, which is my youngest and the earliest she can go back to school is Monday and I thought I was stuck home until Friday afternoon until the MD of her company told her to go home and work from there, as she is pretty ruff, but is old school and goes to work unless is she can't finical get there. My eldest has a raging cold and is still going to school. I arrived at 8 am as I was up early and half expecting to have to head over to the Airfield lake, but the meadow was completely empty and after spotting a couple of carp show in the Gap swim and Stumps, I call Ian for a chat and the choices where made, as long as no one fancies Ian chose before he gets here, I'm not one for reserving swims for hours, maybe the odd 30 minutes if I know he is around the corner stocking up on supplier e.g my pasty that he kindly brings down every Thursday with him, all hot from the shop's oven.
