Your Mother was a wise woman, Panu.(Mothers always are  :D)


I hope there was a warm sauna or steamroom somewhere nearby to bring the life back after your swim?

Nope, just a dressing room. But itīs just fine, because you donīt feel the skin soon after you get up from the water.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

A couple of shark finn soup comments have sprung to mind, but I'll resist.  ;D

That water really does look cold.  Cold enough it doesn't even look inviting despite our forecast 35'C.
