Day 248 - 9th October 2010

Today, Jen hit the dive boat with some friends to fun dive. I waved goodbye and settled down to another tedious afternoon.

However, around 3 pm, a huge pile of crap washed up. I went down to start clearing up, and soon a few more people gave a hand... around 15 in all.



What a terrible sight... and took hours to clean. It was dark, and then another pile came in.. so we all dragged the crap up, and found this in amongst it... still trying to identify it.


What this shows you is how damaging just throwing the smallest piece of rubbish in the ocean can be. It all collects together and traps creatures, usually killing them... such a bloody waste. I would also like to point the finger at the people who sat at the bar drinking beers and not lending a single hand, as if we do this for the fun of it? Come on people... its OUR BLOODY PLANET!

Many thanks to the people who did lend a hand. Thanks guys.

Some people really don't give a damn! Well done for doing your bit. Have you identified the wierd looking fish? Is it a tuna?

Not a tuna bro... more like a baby whale cos it had flippers (pectoral fins)
