Fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots or rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything - not even old boots. After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. “You must give up fishing!”, my friends say “It’s a waste of time”. But they don’t realize that I am not really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting alone in a boat and doing nothing.
