Listen up everybody, there is a litre bottle of gingerale/coca cola for whoever can find my conch and return it to its rightful owner (me)
Details: Varodero marina, at the end of the dock on the right hand side (beware it's barracuda infested water)
Send to: Wick Road, Teddington, Middlesex TW11 9DW.
Conch's description: Small orange shell about three inches in length. It took some time to master the dive so the conch is crucial it must be found "Dead or Alive".
 
Anyway besides that Cuba was great we had a great time there was great excitement when me and Ed saw the beautiful turquoise, crystal clear aqua blue water and even more when we started swimming in it. We saw some amazing fish and got to swim in the Atlantic and the Caribbean Sea! Also, I must add that I think I am the first Fortescue to climb a twenty foot coconut tree and I hope this will establish a precedent for the younger members of the family.  And coconut tree climbing and opening coconut's lesson's will be available at the same address as the conch reward.
