Toby dragged me off hher and I went off, had a swim, then sat up here, having a smoke, having a think, a think and a smoke, and staring to feel okay. Back atthe club-house Gary's band was bashing some poor bloody song to death, but out here it was quiet, totally stil... and then I saw. Down below me, between me and the ocean. Davo and Scott pissing themselves. Toby Ackland dragging someone by the arm. ‘Come on, ‘Tracy. Come on.’ She was sort of half: sigeling. He pulled her down on the ground.
