Many years ago Captain Skipjack travelled the globe in his frigate. It was hard work in the merchant navy, sometimes the wind and rain lashed the decks in a fury. Sometimes the waves were 150feet high and would toss the frigate around like a matchbox.
Sometimes the salt air would take the skin off your cheeks and sometimes you ran out of loo roll, but you overcame these things, because, afterall, you were in the merchant navy and thats what you had to put up with.
Captain Skipjack survived all the trials and tribulations by befriending a seagull called Morris who lived mainly on the coast of California. Sometimes Morris would come and live on the boat and sit in the rigging and chat to albatrosses.
Morris came to visit the Captain this week but the english seagulls didn't like his accent so chased him out of town.
