00:01While the muckabee simmered, Mummy showed us how to reach into the deep
00:04undersides of rock to find mutton fish. They were glued tight to the
00:09walls like green shelled soldiers. She used an iron bar from the pram to prize
00:15the spongy suckers from the rock. She rubbed their bellies on barnacles to
00:20clean them.
00:23So did it just stick on the rocks on its own? No, remember it had all those
00:29little suckers on the outside of the shell to hold it to the rocks. But we'll
00:35wait for the next page how to clean them, Mrs. Boardman.
00:40Her hands had to work quickly under the water or a slippery eel would come. They
00:46love mutton fish and have teeth as sharp as razors. We slurped the hot muckabee
00:52soup with the salt we had gathered. We all sat around with big smiles.
00:59And see the barnacles, girls and boys? Some people will bring this home to their home and
01:05try to clean them. But I found, Mrs. Simms found it, better to clean them while you're
01:11out of the rocks. And there's the barnacles. So when you rub the shell, the mutton fish on
01:17those barnacles, it helps take off all that black. So one day when we went to the rocks,
01:23the trolley's coming in, a little rock pool. We see him swinging her leg, clinging the
01:29mutton fish and getting it out. And the gut goes straight down into the water.
01:34it goes straight down into the water.
01:34And the.
