On a rare "essential" shopping trip in the car yesterday up came the news. The announcer said 300 pilot whaleswere stranded on sandbanks inside and outside the harbour at Strahan - SW Tassy.
The announcer said "whale experts and the police" were going to rescue them.
Turned to my companion and said"The whales are stuffed"
Today hear that a third (100 whales) are dead.
With 100 expert "suits" from Hobart; 35 police and a dozen Parks green tossers
The Whales were doomed - without a chance.
If they had hired ten commercial fishos and boats different story.
