Life's a box of chocolates. Up to this year, I've found lots of them. I still remember the words in "Forest Gump" and still like the movie.

Memorials | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2009/02/25/memorials
About the dolphin man. I don’t know how I’m going to get out of this. It’s as if the nightmares have unlocked the part of my brain where the other nightmares live. I thought I’d escaped. There are still there. Tonight, I am going to sleep on the beach. Maybe all the electronica by my bed is messing up my head.

Arrivals | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2009/05/22/arrivals
About the dolphin man. It wasn’t quite the rescue I expected but the panic is over. We are saved. Yesterday I saw the Maori, all three of them, tying up a new boat and then walking down the beach towards me. At first I thought that at last they’d decided to help, but no, they were just guiding a new arrival to this smelly, shitty corner of the world. Then he asked who I was. I was so shocked I could have died on the spot but then I realised I haven’t told anyone who I am, so how would he know? He’s more ...

New Year’s… frustration | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2009/01/07/new-years-frustration
About the dolphin man. New Year’s… frustration. My high is blown. Just when I was feeling almost happy for the first time in years. I have a hut. I love it. I have a boat. It’s big enough. Just. I have company in Kiki. He’s a skilled sailor, local, and my friend. I have dolphins. I love dolphins. I can smoke on the beach, around the fire, after my fish supper that I can now catch myself using the speargun Kiki gave me. But it all means nothing if I can’t work. Why me, and why now? The sensors are the key...

Endings | the dolphin man

About the dolphin man. It’s not everyday that you are woken up with a gun pointing into your head. That’s what I woke up to yesterday, the day it all ended. It’s over. And I may as well tell you now that Seth is gone. The Dolphin Man is dead. If you are looking at this blog for the first time this won’t make much sense. I’ll make it easy for you. Go back to the first part, Introductions. And find your own way from there. What I tell you now will make better sense for it. It was the American Mr Walker (I ...

My humble home | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2008/12/12/my-humble-home
About the dolphin man. I’m itching to get work up and running proper but I have to wait for the rest of my equipment. To arrive before I can do anything with the dolphins. No sign of that or the spear fishing trip so far so I’ve spent the last couple of days tinkering with the kit I could carry with me, which isn’t much,. In my little beach hut. It’s made of wood and suits the climate here perfectly as it’s amazingly benign, about 28C every day (summer in the Southern hemisphere now! Feed You can leave a...

The beginning of something big | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2009/01/19/the-beginning-of-something-big
About the dolphin man. The beginning of something big. Today was one of the most exciting days of my life. I’m still shaking from adrenaline as I sit here typing this out. More delays because of repairs to the boat, principally her engine, have frustrated me again but right now I just don’t care. Has brought to the world. And that the temporal and geophysical scales on which this is achieved dwarfs all but post-radio twentieth century communication. The rationale is sound: we have to interact with the wi...

Introductions | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2008/11/28/day-one-arrival
About the dolphin man. For the few who knew I’d left, I have arrived. Some people call me the dolphin man. That is all you need to know for now. That is a secret: a Top Secret. Why am I here? I am a researcher (I dislike the word ‘scientist’) and I work with dolphins. I investigate the way dolphins communicate with each other and other pods of dolphins that may be swimming many miles away across the ocean. I will spend the next three to five years here and I will prove the sceptics wrong. So, if you are ...

Men and machines | the dolphin man
https://thedolphinman.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/men-and-machines
About the dolphin man. Now I am really scared and very hungover. I’ll tell you why I’m scared first. I woke up this morning to find a new tent erected on the beach right outside Seth’s hut, pretty much blocking the way in. I crawled out of my sleeping bag in the forlorn hope that it might be full of food or something. Stupid girl. As soon as I wandered in Mr Walker, wanker, threw me out. And I can see why. What I saw was disgusting. I was horrified. I freaked out. They all looked like they were d...And t...
