Octopus

<back blip/>

Another reason Sea Pro Divers failed to delight...

Our guide found and Octopus in a hole in the reef. Rather than pointing it out then moving on, he rather brutally forced it out (quite unpleasant to watch) and wrestled it until it eventually settled on his instruments. He then took it to the surface, and it ended up disappearing into a kitchen...

Only MrsCyclops and I were diving with him that day, so we ended up paying him for destroying some of the life we'd come to observe.

I'm not queamish about the fact that some people like to hunt although in many places hunting with SCUBA is banned as it unsustainable, but I don't want them doing it when I'm paying them to guide me!

Gah!
