This story was written in 2006 after a holiday in Fiji. Having never heard of or seen these strange worm-like fish, I was intrigued to learn more about them from the local people. The fish only rise to the ocean surface two days a year, in October and again in mid November.

Think of Afghanistan and the first things to run through your mind will (not unreasonably) be war, Taliban, and US military forces. But Afghan cricket proudly claims more than 70,000 male participants play in most of the country’s 34 provinces and that even the country’s most unstable areas have teams that compete in national tournaments.
