worse things happen at sea - but

if i ever gave anyone the impression that i was or might believe myself to be anywhere near approaching viewing myself as brave, let me tell you it was a mistake, an overestimation of the highest degree. out on the boat with sarah and old salt on saturday going round Bald Head into the southern ocean i wasn't just scared, i wasn't just shivering with the awareness of mortality, i wasn't just panicking, i was ABSOLUTELY FUCKING STARK NAKED TERRIFIED! TERRIFUCKINGFIED!!!! i was out of my skin with BALD BLOODY FEAR!!
