A nice little story from the independent on a message in a bottle that washed up in Passage east 8 years after it was set to sea. http://www.independent.ie/national-news/from-sea-to-skype-oisin-meets-girls-behind-message-in-a-bottle-3270980.html .

On FRance about 20 years ago my boys found a message in a bottle on the Beach near Morlaix and we took it back to the campsite to translate it. My rusty French told me it had been thrown into the sea by two girls on holidays, a week earlier and just a few hundred yards from where the boys found it.
