It was time to trial a new venue for our bookclub and one suggestion was the Noosa Catalina Princess now moored in the river attached to a jetty which now served good coffee. All the old boat houses along the river have or are in the process of converting into coffee shops but few boast their seating in a boat.

As we walked to board it looked odd this pristine, never been used rolled rope. Was it just for decoration or would it be used if a boat pulled in.

As I looked at the rope which was oddly out of place where all else was old I looked down into the water looking for the fish that I knew would be there. It was odd not to see large fish gliding but the fry were there in plenty. What I wasn’t expecting was the face that seemed moulded in the water. Oddly, I can’t work out is it my imagination, can everyone see a face, is it my own face staring back?

Resting my phone on a table I took a photo up the river. I sometimes rest my camera to stop any blurring from my own tremoring. It was odd because it did not seem as though the boat was on so much of a lean. Did I take the photo as the wake from the other boat reached us?

An odd place for a paddle boarder to start. Coffee then play. I guess he’ll come back for another coffee as he has left his thongs on board.

Our next book club might have a few distractions but it was nice and quiet but we will definitely need to be rugged up.
