I was hugely excited about our 12 week scan of baby Prior. Why? Well mainly because we were hoping to see a semi-human looking baby instead of something that resembled the letter “Y”.

After the success of the first Cape Vidal trip in April we headed back, this time with 14 fly fishermen from Team Baha, the DFT and South Coast Fly Anglers, to try our luck yet again. Nick picked me up just before 4am and we quickly passed Jan and Gavin on Fields Hill as if …
