I spent today being lazy. Finished Einsteins Dreams – an excellent book which I can highly recommend. I also got most of the way through 1700 miles in an open boat. It’s a story which involved one of Dennis’ great uncles. A ship left Perth and sank (it was carrying an odd material which didn’t allow the bilges to work). The crew then made it 1700 miles to the Mauritius Islands. Also got quite a few postcards written..
Did try my hand at fishing though (really easy here!!) and actually caught a blue cod.. even tried filleting it too – though I was pretty bad at that. Dennis and Warick went on a bit of a paddle up the coast (4 hours or something!!)
