Chunderneath The Reef

What trip to Queensland would be complete without a trip to the Great Barrier Reef? With this in mind, we set off on a boat with winds of about 25 knotts. That's more than a boy scout would tie at camp!

Here's my breakfast for the big day




The pills contain ginger and are supposed to help seasickness (rather than the blue ones which aid s*xual performance). Breakfast was supposed to come with two ginger pills but I "went large" and took six for good measure. The only problem was how to drink my tea through the snorkel

I eventually got it all down the tube and we finally reached the reef after battling through endless waves the size of houses. Here's a pic of me in snork-action over the coral.

Shortly after this picture was taken, the choppy reef finally got to me and I had to give the fish a high protein snack under water. So much for all those rubbish ginger pills then...!

After the fishy lunch, I decided it was time to return to the boat for a lay down. Whilst I was on my back, I had a great idea for a new series of books called Captain Pirelli's Banjo. It's going to be a heart wrenching love story set at sea. Whatever the plot, I hope Penelope Cruz will be available for those inevitible topless scenes :-)
