If you ever meet a white shark, poke it in the eye.

Why didn't you tell me before?
Sunnies,

But what if it's a nice shark, minding its own business, or telling you've left your bag on the bench you've been sitting on?

Joking apart, that sounded really nasty.

Do you poke it in the eye before it says anything? As an opening salvo, to see what it does next? What do you poke it with? This has raised so many questions for me.

I think you're right, Tania. We need a plan. Nik, are you in, or are you and the nice shark off for a coffee together? Deborah definitely is in.
My view is that we don't wait for it to say anything, we poke straight away which means we need to design special swimming costumes with our weapon in just in case - a pocket for easy access. Or could we use fingers? What do you think?

Nik Perring said...

Um, I think I'll wait and see what the swimming costume looks like, if that's okay.

Sarah Salway said...

Haha, Nik. It's OK, us girls will be wearing James Bond style bikinis with daggers to protect you. Yep, I'll shut up now.

Sounds wonderful. I'm in!

That's just not nice!

Who can doubt there are too many humans, and too few sharks?

Sarah Salway said...

No one said we were nice here, Lexi. It's a mean, lean 007-style blog I'm running. Better safe than sorry, I say. And there are plenty of humans who need a good poke in the eye too....

Sarah, that made me laugh, a lot.
