Keswick Island Holiday Stories by Karin

* a collection of stories and memories, in no particular order, from the life and times of John Clarke, who served as a policeman in the Australian Police Force, a great practical joker, he also had a great affinity with people and wildlife, was a champion swimmer, snooker player, loved golf, still loves fishing and is also an artist. I hope you enjoy his recollections - cheers, karin (his daughter)

I (Karin) have written recollections of our Keswick Island holidays over 9 journals/chapters
Just CLICK HERE to read them, they all mention my father John, in one episode he goes blind, in others we set up shark traps, someone gets bitten by a bat, we find a turtle, i get my finger trapped in a giant clam, Tim wrestles a shark barehanded, etc... it was a fascinating adventure we shared on an uninhabited island on the Whitsundays in Queensland, Australia when I was about 10 years old
