        I'm with Wendy - the shower is as wet as I'll get today

          I flicked a little water on my face this morning, does that count?

                  I wonder if he is doing it - all swimmers get into the water at 11 am!

                        Did you really? And if you did are you ok now? Large brandy to warm you up?

                        Well done I must say.

                          Come on Snadge, we want to know how it was for you? Bloomin' freezing here all day, so I can't imagine how cold that water was.

                              Well I did it! Along with about another 200 idiots.

                              It wasn't so much the cold but the waves smashing you against the rocks!

                              I got the Daughter in Law involved as well but I don't think she was too impressed having to stand soaking wet on the beach while I did a five minute seal impression!

                              I came out eventually when I lost the feeling in my finger tips (and other unmentionable extremities!
