*Chief Security Officer BluesSlider is seen heading down the beach stripping off his clothes and carrying a surfboard. Neat trick if you can do it smiley - smiley. Splashing into the sea he launches himself onto the surfboard to paddle out for the next big breaker.*

Well, I can't vouch for Bluebottle and his Lobster Net,
But I'm always friendly smiley - winkeye

You quite welcome to surf if you want, there are some really great waves here and you don't have to worry about coral. That's all further up the shore. smiley - smiley

I'm safe - I let all the lobsters go after I catch them, they're just fascinating to catch and watch.

Lobsters are fascinating animals.
And crabs too... I've spent hours watching crabs walk and react to various things...

I like horseshoe crabs...scary looking critters, but neat. They don't do too much though. I used to think they waited for humans to approach and then would stick that tail up to stab an unsuspecting foot...but they don't really do that. At least I hope they don't...

No... they're quite friendly really smiley - smiley (just like mesmiley - winkeye)
They just seem a bit scary if you don't know how to handle them... Like most crabs I suppose. smiley - smiley

Probably best not to handle them...look but don't touch. Not usually my motto, but sometimes it pays to follow sage advice. smiley - smiley
