'Don't look, Brian. They only want your attention.'
'But Gerald, they might have food.'
'There's food right here. All the grass you could ever eat!'
A few seconds pass.
'Gerald, they've got carrots…'
Gerald jumps to his hooves with a bleat. 'Carrots?? Why didn't you say? '

The estuary waters are calm today. The sky is soft and the port is in sight.
Yet, last night the wind howled, the sails snapped and the rain thundered. We thought the Solway would end us. When the sun rose, we gave thanks to God, Neptune and the Sea herself.
