6 June - Fishing being the order of the day.

You can't live on an island and not learn about the fishing. We have watched locals clambering over rocks and digging in the sandy rock pools collecting their bait for the day's fishing.

It appears that everyone owns a boat of some sort. From little dinghies with an 8hp motor in the coves, to full blown trawlers kept off St Peter Port.

The variation in the height of the tide is enormous here in Guernsey so I would not recommend setting off to sea unless you go with a local who knows the tides, currents and rocks around the island.  It wouldn't be difficult to make the local newspaper headlines "Boat runs aground on rocks....".

Personally I prefer to stay on terra firma playing with Peace in the water.

Peace thinks she is in heaven and can't get enough of the beach and water.
