Somedays there just ain't no fish.
Those with very long memories may recall a pop-trio called the Andrews Sisters. They had a minor hit with the song "Somedays there just ain't no fish".
We understand the lyric, we have fished all-day for two days and caught ... nothing; not even a false alarm or lost lure to report.
Surely it can't be our fault ... we have a new and better lure 'the finest the woolworths could sell (to change the metaphor to Albert and the Lion).
I vaguely recall that the song continues (if anyone reading has access to google, could they reply with the actual words please).
"it ain't my bait, it ain't my rod, somedays there just ain't no fish".
I hope that others are having better luck than we are but, if you are, then keep it to yourselves, there is nothing worse than finding out that us not the fish.
