Octopus

Now life is not always as smart as you think. Because when I was about 16 years old my parents took as to the sea for the first time and because you are still young and full of life nothing really bothers you, in the first place you are a "Vaalie" you are even braver than every body ells. Therefore, the Sunday my parents took as to the best beach around Durban, and that is Umhlanga Rocks. Therefore, as we arrived there every thing was cool, and soon there were thousands of people on the beach. In addition, we were sitting by the little beach with a lot of old celebrities hanging around with some games to keep the people busy, but soon I did square some girls up on the beach and of we went to the swimming beach. However, on the way there the girl said we must go and have a look on the rocks. Now with all my courage I got from the main man of Pretoria Paul Kruger, I was the first one on the rocks, and now helping the Girls up. So we were walking and looking in the pools and just as we got to the end of these rocks, I spotted a Pool in the rock and just jumped in without hesitation Just, as I wanted to help one of the girls into this little pool the unexpected Happen? In the pool is a suction hole where the water was running in and out but not bigger than a tennis ball, and what I was about too do. I had to get my foot in some position to get a firm grip on the girl I wanted to lower into the water, and just at that point, of time, the damn Octopus and quite a big one pushed his tentacles through the bloody hole in the pool and got hold of my foot and leg. Now the whole movie 20,000 Leagues under the sea played in front of my mind, and at that time the poor girl did not know a thing. I was looking up to here and she was looking down to me, and while the octopus was getting a better grip on my leg it struck me that, this was no movie at all. First, I wanted to suppress my thoughts but when it came out it just burst out! Whhhaa! Came the first sound, now the poor girl was looking at me and did not know what was going on, but then she saw the thing in the water around my leg and started to go off. Wheeeeeee! In addition, before we knew! The whole beach was on alert and within a couple of seconds there was about 5 life savers at my rescue, but until they got my leg loose, the girl and I had a couple of good screams at each other. And believe me if I had my pocket knife with me, my name would stand next to Oom Paul Kruger
