    Report on-board Vanishing Point-2

    We had a great day on Friday 12th May with our very dear friends
    Nigel Farage, Dave Barham , John Rawle, Nicola, and myself Terry Batt, on board our super charter boat Vanishing Point-2.
    we were fishing for Thornback Rays and general fishing and had the most wonderful day.... with up to 50 Rays caught and most returned, we were mainly fishing for sport, good mates enjoying a day off from the hustle and bustle of every day life “especially” poor old Nigel... the paparazzi cant get to him out at sea...!! so a lovely day was had by all..!! the talk was of cricket, football, boxing, fishing , and general day to day ordinary chit chat no politics a day off......
    At slack water we all had a go at shooting some clay's and Nigel was pretty good..!! John couldn't get used to my Berretta , but Dave Barham shot out of his skin hardly missing a clay ( crafty dog) but I don't wish to brag I didn't miss a single clay...!! so Dave and I have a grudge match....lol
    After the days fishing and shooting we retired to the Green Man Pub just around the corner from Bradwell Marina, courtesy of Arthur T who owns the marina and a great supporter of
    Nigel Farage, and we thank Arthur for arranging Michael to receive us out of normal hours...! but Michael does get something out of it for himself and notoriety for his pub....
    (you owe me a pint....lol) but we would like to thank all the staff at the green man which include Vicky the best barmaid in Essex..! who treats everyone the same no special favours, and Nigel loved it... just one of the guys..!!..
    Well next time we have Nigel down with us it is quite possible he may be "accompanied” by his good friend and comedian
    Jim Davidson ... not definite but possible ..! so we will have to see where we go for after the trip drinks on that day... ????
    I would like to thank John Rawle for basically running the trip, expert as ever at the helm and his expert advice on baiting and casting which Nigel found very helpful and rewarding..!!, and also to Bob Cox who sadly couldn't make the trip on Friday but did join us in the Green Man for a drink, so nice to see the legendary Cox & Rawle among our other guest,
    Nigel Farage, and Dave Barham, sitting at one table, I felt most privileged to be sitting at the table with my wife Nicola and able to call all of these people my friends ..... it don't get much better.
    If any of you fancy a days fishing and Clay Pigeon shooting as do our Celebrities please call on...... 07768 30 66 46 to make a booking makes for a great corporate day out and team building event.... 100% tax deductible...!!!
    All the best
    Terry & Nicola.... (Vanishing Point-2)
