"Spent a night at Napier, I slept like a baby after the day I'd had!
We pulled up at the beach- a long stretch of black/grey pebbles and cool green waters. There was a storm brewing in the distance. I sat there for a while soaking up the brilliant colour scheme, then heard a call of distress. Using my binoculars I saw a whale thrashing about with long tentacles wrapped around it.
I have nothing against the giant squid, but you are one of my best friends and he is your nemesis, so I knew what I had to do. I swam out as fast as I could and in no time managed to free the whale. We wrestled for hours with black clouds swirling above and waves crashing down.
When I thought I could fight no more I managed to get into position and stared deep into one of his gigantic eyes. I almost felt sorry for the beast.
Then with all my force I punched it, my arm went right up into my shoulder-A trick I learnt from Buffy!
He spasmed a few minutes, then was still. The waves died down and the clouds parted letting the glorious sunlight through.
The frazzled but grateful whale took us to shore and I presented the corpse to the National Aquarium-conveniently located right on the beach."

You are the best Jo! Way to go and save a whale. Teach that giant squid to pick on somebody its own sizwe
Well, technically-It was Cass who wrestled the Squid this time. But stay tuned for a series of Flashbacks coming up of my own struggles with oversize Sea-Life.
