ALBI TROSS and the PILOT

Albi stood on the front of the dingy looking ahead to where Pilot was rowing.

" I wouldn't go there." said Albi.

Pilot stopped rowing and looked round. " Why not." said Pilot. "Is it full of fierce cannibals, crocodiles or worse?"

" If I was you." said Albi turning round to face Pilot." I would turn round and paddle in the other direction as fast as I could."

" What is wrong with that island." ask Pilot seriously.

" It's a lovely island." said Penguin. " I've been there many times."

" I agree." said Albi. " As far as islands go it is a very good island, sandy beaches, coconut palms, good fishing."

" But." said Pilot.

" But." said Albi. " I would have thought you would be a lot happier paddling your little dingy to the town on the main land just behind us."

Pilot looked around again, there not far away, rising out of the morning sea mist was a little fishing village sitting in a small rocky cove.
