A natural fisherwoman pt2
I still look uncomfortable, but I’m definitely getting better: I had no idea what I was doing, but it seems I’m pretty good at sea fishing. You should see the bruises I have on my leg from yanking it out of the sea though. My arms are still...

A natural fisherwoman…
…or not. Look how comfortable I look at having my fingers lodged in a barramundi’s gills: I’m just glad there was no one around to film the next scene when I dropped the fish on the floor. Something tells me Marty doesn’t have...

Farm pests, Aussie style.

Fish with legs
Look, look – legs! After two weeks of having to cover them up and being ferried around all the time by drivers, I’d almost forgotten I had a pair of these. Not that I’m one for flashing flesh, but it was so nice to get to Singapore this...
