Reef Sharks my Arse!
A few days ago a number (2) of bull sharks were sited just off the beach here. Now I know they were bull sharks because the dive lady who was a metre or so away from them in the water told me however she (the giant porky teller) is telling everyone that they were reef sharks so that they don't freak out. Now as you will observe in Figure 1 and 1.1. A bull shark is big and nasty looking. (observe potential of large pointy teeth)

Fig 1.1 (note the surliness of the dorsal fin)
Now the above sited beasties were definately not one of these...

Fig. 2
As you will observe in this slightly vague image that this is not as nasty looking a shark (coughcough) and much less threatening...really...(My Bum!)
So for all those people who said my shark research was wasted...if I get eaten by one of those buggers at least I know which one's taking a chunk out of me.
Oh and camp gossip which is oh so accurate now has the number of sharks sited up to 14.
