Long Lost Child!

Hello family,

I hope you get this, because it is a long way for this bottle to float.
I am in this strange place, full of strange people and they are speaking this strange language. The food is horrible and you can’t go outside because they say it is too dangerous.
I have some water, but it tastes horrible and it has these weird things like dirt or something in it but I think I will survive off it. I also have a small radio powered by batteries; every now and then the radio flickers on and off and has small death reports on refugees being hanged.
The food, the water, the climate and the culture is all horrible I wish I was back in Mexico but I heard on the radio that it is being destroyed by Donald Trump and there will be nothing left but I hope you, my family are all okay.
I hope you are all right whereever you are. I still have nightmares of when they attacked us. I wish I was home with you because his strange place is horrible, I am trapped in this confined stinky place with this couple and her husband just died three days ago and she has not stopped crying for those three horrible days and the cell is starting to flood because she has been crying so much it is like a waterfall coming out of her eyes.
There is this security guard who is a woman and she is smoking hot she is prettier than a princess but she is guarding this other cell but I wish she was guarding our cell so I could stare at her all day, there is this extremely fat ugly man who is guarding our cell and I can just see past him he is that fat.
I have just heard news that my cell and a few others are going to be shipped to Madagascar so whilst I am being shipped I will send the bottle into the drink to start its long journey.

Yours sincerely, James

Fishing Monthly Competition

I went fishing in the Kalbarri Offshore and Angling Club monthly competition, the competition started at 5:00pm Friday and ended at 4:00pm Saturday. After school I got all my fishing gear ready and then I went down to Marina Home and Leisure (Post Office) to get my bait and extra tackle.

I walked down to the Penn and set up. Robbie, Phet and Harry were down there fishing. None of us caught any fish that night but there were a few big runs but none of them were landed.

When I woke up, Dad drove me down to the Penn to have another fish.  Robbie, Phet and Harry camped overnight there. Robbie caught 1 Mangrove Jack early in the morningThere was a few bream being caught but nothing big.

A few hours went by and nothing competition worthy and Terry came down to take his boat out and the noise of the boat made the fish come out to investigate so I cast behind the boat and hooked up to a big bream.  It didn’t fight, it was just a solid weight and then I saw the bream and I told Phet to get the net and he scooped him up in a single scoop.  I was thrilled.  I measured it and he was all of 41cm and he didn’t fit in my esky so I put him in Robbie’s esky with his mangrove jack and smaller bream.

After my ‘nanny nap’ I went down to the weigh-in to get a ticket and then I saw my competitor’s fish and what they caught.   I was feeling lucky.

When they weighed my bream it was 1.32kg, I was stoked with a new PB bream and I won the Junior River and Meritorious prize.
