With both me and my uncle Charlie out at sea it would be just a little bit quieter in Pontypandy (not saying much as Norman Price is still at large)

Charlie steered well away from Rocks, land and fishing nets and other things the boat could get stuck in but the boat was pointed towards Pontypandy island if the danger occurred we'd always have land to go to

Charlie passed me a fishing rod that had some bait on it and after a while he said to put it in the sea and I did so, he followed after

After a while I felt a tug on my rod so I wheel it in and much to my uncle's dismay I do catch the first fish of the day and it's a calf

I smile as I put it in the net and put more bait on my rod before putting it back into the water

Charlie tapped my nose and I laugh, he then wheels his back in and we see a tuna fish and we contour to fish

After a very long time we have a lot of fish and I really want to throw one of the buckets in to see if we get some crabs

Charlie debates and with my pout and my puppy dog eyes he can't say no so he says "just don't fall in Jones"

I smile and say "I like my dads foolproof face" as I throw it in

"You and your dad have it mastered and I can't say no to either of you when you use it" Charlie said with a chuckle

He then pulls it back in and I say "Crabs"

Charlie chuckled and said "yes Jones crabs pointy pointy crabs"

I laugh and say "too bad I can't let one bite Norman"

Charlie laughs and says "one your father won't allow it two sadly I can't allow it even after what he's done to you and the twins"

"Awh" I say defeated before I lurch to one side very dangerously "CHARLIE"

Charlie grabs my arm and pulls me to him and he says "we haven't hit a rock you keep the bot steady"

I nodded and he checks the whole boat over top to bottom, bottom to top and then I say "Charlie"

He says "yeah"

"Storm" I say as I point

Charlie joins me and he looks to and he says "hold onto something Jones time we headed back"

I nod and hold onto the side as Charlie tries to steer us back to the key side but to no avail the boat isn't listening and it's starting to rock and I'm starting to be uncertain

"Uncle" I say scared

Charlie hears and tries to keep the boat steady but the storm gets closer and I say "uncle" so scared again Charlie gives in and pulls me to him and he hugs me briefly as he makes sure the life jacket is on tight and this time he tries to steer to Pontypandy island but still no avail

This time I feel the whole boat rocking and Charlie keeps at his best to keep the boat a float and me calm

Then we realised the storm is much closer then we thought and it hits the boat with such force that it makes Charlie let go of the steering wheel and us both go under
