Picture the scene.




So there we are, stoned out of our heads right out in the ocean, past the shelter of the bay, when we see two sodding great boats coming towards us at some ridiculous speed. and we are in a pedalo!

We quickly peddle out of the way, because if you catch the wake of a big boat in a pedalo you tend to get a bit of a wild ride!

So we get out of the way. then the boats turn toward us. So we pedal even faster. And the boats turn towards us. So we peddle the other way. And the boats turn towards us again!

We are now seriously bricking it. we are stoned, right out at see, and directly in the path of two huge boats that are getting closer every second.

Once more we turn way and once more the boats head towards us. Finally, with about 20 foot to spare the boats vere off. Then some guy comes running down the length of the boat waving is hands in the air and shouting.

"Hello boys, see you in the bar tonight!"

Yes, it was the part owner of the bar we had been drinking in, who thought it was hilarious to scare the shit out of us like that!

But if we were scared how did the eighty or so people on the boat feel, heading into the bay at god knows what speed with the man who was supposed to be driving, hanging off the back with a joint in his hand waving at two hippies on a pedalo!
