and the winner is...

Let me just open the envelope... The first annual Get On the Beam Best Gammon and Chips award goes to...

The Fish & Eels, Dobbs Weir


It was another beautiful sunny day. We've really been spoiled in the UK for the past few weeks; the weather here today was better than in Madrid, Nice, Venice and Tenerife. Amazing.

Anyway, I thought I'd get off my couch and make the most of the sunshine. I decided to take a lovely 10 mile round trip walk along the River Lee Navigation from Cheshunt, Hertfordshire up to Dobbs Weir. The last time I went to Dobbs Weir was as a kid, fishing with my father. It used to be one of the few places that you could guarantee catching a few fish, even if they were only Dace. I can't say that I ever really took to fishing but returning there today brought back many happy memories. God bless Dad.
