if he could he would

so yesterday i'm minding my business out at broken head. chilling on my board. waiting for a wave.
all of a sudden out of the calm blue water appears a lone dolphin. right next to me. this was no ordinary dolphin. i swear he liked me. he was chilling beside me for a few minutes then disappeared. then he reappeared and jumped out of a wave i was paddling for. "cheekie," i thought to myself.
he then rocked up beside me again. and this time i swear he winked at me before rolling onto his side- to show off his fins no doubt.
i then ran into my friend steve on my way in and he swears that a dolphin was trying to intimidate him just a few minutes before. most likely my dolphin trying to mark his territory and let steve know he should watch himself.

maybe this story is true. maybe it's not. maybe dolphins can wink, maybe they can't. maybe a dolphin tried to strike fear in steve's heart or maybe he's just a really, REALLY British guy who has never seen a dolphin in the surf before.
