Messages of Bottles!


Apache and Ringo;Ken Barnett.


Its been a day when the phone keeps ringing with news of the bottles in Fishguard Bay,thanks all! Martin first saw them today from the lifeboat whilst on a call near Pwllgwaelod.  We finally got out with Barbarella's Sister Chris and brother in law Derek on the breakwater where one of the callers Ian Hotchin was out on his boat. Both "Apache" and her well grown calf "Ring"o were hanging around the harbour mouth unconcerned by Ian's junk rigged boat under sail. We had to get back to work so only saw them briefly, but it was nice to confirm their identity. A while later Ken rang to say they were leaping around off the breakwater but he was stuck on a job and could not get away!
Its been quite a happening week in the bay, long may it continue!
