One must not mind getting one's feet wet. I feel this to be a
priority. Wellingtons and even waders can be quite a draw-back.

Actually it was foist upon me when I wasn't looking.

No. In fact it barely registers on my central nervous system. A bit
like breathing. (One can tend to get them mixed up. Especially if
wearing wellies. Take time to sort them out in your mind before going
out I say!)

Swimming. Especially if prone to mixing up the answers to questions
one and two. (See answer to question three.)

Work in warmer water. More bladder control. I don'y know, it's a
difficult one, that. Both perhaps; I hear that rum is quite cheap in
the Bahamas.

Cold and wet. Difficulty in breathing if one gets out of one's depth.
Man eating shrimps or are there really gt white's over here? Where did
I put my glasses?
