Clacton 2006



May Day Bank Holiday was yet again the start of the annual Wendover Junior FC trip to Clacton to appear in a tournament. A real Dad/Son bond of beer, football and no Mum! Adam managed to relax the whole time - so did Dad!

The football was great but even better was the weather, the beach and watching Adam collect his football trophy from ex. Charlton Athletic manager Alan Curbishley!

Adams First Fish April 2006



Adam's first fish. Following Father Christmas's visit and delivery of a fishing rod and tackle, we decided to combine Adams first fishing experience with a weekend at Uncle John and Yvettes. My first fish was a tiny stickleback in a net, Adam managed to slightly outdo me by catching a 1lb common carp in Uncle Johns lake. Adam was suprised how wriggly the fish was and also how big and heavy too.

Once news filtered through it wasn't long before everyone was having a go!

Soon Annabel was catching them and Amber even had a go!

I must say that the bait lasted all of 10 seconds in the water before another fish was caught - you could have been catching fish every minute for days, if not weeks!

A great weekend was had by all and thanks to John and Yvette for letting Adam catch his first ever fish!

Stuart called from Atlanta today to tell us how to update this website - now they can be bored of photos and trivia from the UK!
