We risk losing out on the cost of our flights and accommodation but I guess that’s a gamble you take when travelling abroad for events. We could still go but the whole idea was to be there for the fight.

Instead we’ve booked a boys weekend up North and will be fishing in Loch Lomond. I’ve enjoyed fishing since I was a kid and it is one way I can truly relax. Armed with two rods each, a fish finder (Stephen likes to cheat) and a variety of baits, we’re going all out to catch some wild salmon and trout.

Fingers crossed we’ll manage to hook a few nice fish that we can eat in the evening with a few drinks. We’ll be staying in a luxury log cabin that we managed to get on a weekend deal and only a stone’s throw away from the loch so it should be a great weekend!

Good luck with your pursuits,

Khalid.
