You know how I talk about big scary beasties in Australia, snakes and sharks and all that. I also tell a story about a surfer looking down below his surfboard, and seeing it dwarfed on either end by a bloody great White shark, just checking him out, and how he surfedthe best he's ever surfed, over the waves, up over the sandhills and to his car?

Well, I might have to retire that story for a little while:

Yikes...

This is the beach where that happened. This is about an hours drive from my home town. This is why I got nervous abotu swimming in my early teens.

This is a test of the blogger early warning system.
