I've got a wetsuit!


Yep, I've got a wetsuit. An incredibly CHEAP wetsuit! Guy found it in an enormous Tesco store in Talbot Green - we'd gone in looking for white furry rabbit ears (as you do), decided as the store was so huge that we'd take half of it each, and my half had all the boring food things. Guy's end had the interesting bits - light bulbs, Spiderman outfits, duvets, riding gear and... wetsuits! There was one in my size and it was £22. Bargain or what? Oh, and it's black and PINK. It does say, several times, on the label 'don't use in chlorinated water' so I expect it'll disintegrate before Christmas, but at least it's something to practice in. We took it to the 'scan it yourself' till and it rang up as £11. Then all the buzzers and red lights started flashing to call a member of staff, and I thought we were going to get done for attempted shoplifting. Or price fiddling... but the Tesco lady simply pressed something, we paid, and that was it. A wetsuit for £11. Remarkable...


It does fit. Sort of. I think I'm either fatter than the designer intended, or longer in the back... it's VERY tight. Wetsuits are meant to be tight, but probably not THAT tight... Although I think the next size up would be way too big. And yes, I did take the price tag off the back before I actually got in the pool...
