There is a plague of these thin blue plastic bags drifting offshore. There is no such thing as recycling. There is no such thing as a conscience about littering.

Funny you should say that. This mornign I walked on the beach behind JBR and the hotels. There were 3 or 4 peole just looking at this "blue thing" drifting in the water. They were "wondering" what it was. Clearly it was a plastic bag and as I passed I picked it up and said: "safe to go back in the water now (and I couldn't resist) its the sharks you should be worried about" - hopefully they spoke english (beach was full of easter europeans - quite a linguist I am you know ).
