Author: Fruitylicious Opti- I prefer to start entries rather than finish them - U231227

How's this coming along, Opti?

I think it needs a read through but a part from that I guess its alright. right?

It's oh so quiet

I should be able to add a load of extra stuff to this entry soon. I’m off to South Africa at the beginning of August and on the weekend of the 12th August I’m going on a Scuba diving course all about the Great White. It’s being run by Michael Rutzen and should include lectures on the ecology, biology and conservation of the big fish. Michael is one of the worlds leading experts on the Shark (he actually free dives with them!) so I should learn some interesting facts that can go into this entry. I should be back in the UK and online sometime around the 23rd of August, if you can all wait till then and the scouts hold off picking this then hopefully we’ll be able to get this great entry into the guide.

I look forward to hearing about your trip. If you want to take this over you can.

Opti, the only way Cardi-Bling can "take this over" would be for you to withdraw it from PR and resubmit it back to the Flea Market, then Cardi can rescue it

Waits and sees what happens....in the mean time must start to think about packing etc. I fly this saturday

notes that it is now out of PR and in the Flea market and all is good with the world*


*if the world was just the Hootoo servers and not anything in the actual world which is just nasty and worth ignoring

I don't like the idea it is in the flea market thats why i didn't put it there. Quick someone save it please.

I put it in the FM. It's the best place for it, Opti. Let it go to someone who will turn it into a great entry. You can now concentrate more fully on your Japan entry in PR

I thought it would look better if I released it outside FM.

No, it's where it belongs. Safer for us all.

Besides it will not be in the flea market for long...as soon as I get back from SA I'll rescue it and finish the entry off!

Excellent news Cardi, enjoy your holiday!

Can I just leave you this link?

Hope your holiday goes well maybe you could give an account of your experience in the entry

Cheers guys I hope my holiday will be brilliant...thats an interesting article its a shame I'll be away this sunday to watch the programme. Love to see it as there's no reason at all why Great Whites aren't found in UK waters...we have big seal colonies to provide ample food sources and the cool temperate waters of our shore are ideal for them

It was on last Sunday

double poo...how did I miss that, actually I know I was in the pub!
