Caster and Pollacks 2


Rhys sees me off this morning on an adventure...

There are probably many useful things which could be achieved by cooperation between Hafal's Chief Executive and the Secretary to the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Drugs (and eminent social policy consultant) Frank Warburton.

Perhaps a project on dual diagnosis? Or a study of the contrasting devolved and undevolved legislation which affects vulnerable adults?

But I insist that these attractive ideas must be subordinated to the priority of advancing Hafal's and our partners' Let's Get Physical! campaign and instead we decide unselfishly to set a practical example which combines both physical exercise and a healthy diet.

So today we borrow Frank's son's boat in order to paddle out and catch pollack - a sustainable fish apparently (but if we had caught a cod or a bass I wouldn't have put it back)...

Note strict risk assessment adherence - I bought my life-jacket in the Chattanooga Walmart last century and a worried Mrs Blog found it this morning at the bottom of a dusty cupboard...



Paddling nervously out through the surf...


The arrow points to us far out off the Caerfai headland feathering for our prey...


This is of course an "outcomes-based" activity - and here is the proof...


P.S. Longstanding readers with good memories will know that I first used this title for a post in 2011 - see here.
