The Same Boat
I keep hearing people say, “We’re all in the same boat”, but we aren’t, we’re all in different boats, caught in the same hurricane. There are skippers who’ve sealed the watertight hatches and are riding it out, ships that are sinking, yachts that have sunk, and there are captains pulling drowning sailors onto their floating gin palaces and invoicing them for the rescue expenses. At the moment, I’m on a large ferry – I’m comfortable, and I’m still able to […]

The New Normal
I’m fortunate; I have a part-time job that gets me out of the house everyday, a virtual hall-pass that allows me to drive the corridors of the Isle of Man with my camera.

The Challenge
‘Tuesday 19th February – I slept through the steam down to the fishing grounds, and woke-up heaving. I only just made it outside, but while I’m feeding the fish with the two waffles I managed to grab on the way out of the house, I work out that we’re south; southwest of the Chicken Rock lighthouse, to be more accurate. Michael wants to play a game that he calls ‘The Wet Challenge.’ – the rules, as far as I can […]
