I don't know what is, it almost like something primal I can't quite put my finger on! Water should move about and pay you as little attention as possible, it shouldn't just lie there eyeing you up like something about to pounce! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skycat 6,173 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 I used to go swimming in the old gravel pits, but I'm paranoid about something coming up to grab me from the depths If my foot touched some weed I'd be paddling like an Olympic racer (not!) away from that area as fast as possible. I think you're right Malt: there is something a bit sinister about still water, especially when you can't see under the surface, and of course, loads of people have drowned after getting caught up in weed. I even see my dogs panic a bit sometimes if they get amongst thick weed: they hate it as much as I do. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Lochs in scotland are all tranquil. However looking down on one, you can see the pebble shore. Then about 15 yards out sheer darkness. I can't swim a stroke, butvim Drawn to water like a pigeon on a chip. I've taken some f*****g chances on water have no fear of it whatsover. I'd really like to live by the sea one day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
