sanitry towels phill :laugh: last year wilsden london at the canal we were striking and there was a dead body being fished out by police they pulled him out with a metal stick to check hes pulse then they let him go again beneath the water untill crime squade turned up we were there 7 hours and he was still below the surface when we went nasty way to go!!!
 
I would have thought one of the worst but they reckon you are overcome by calm, aye right.

BF, he is beaming right enough. What is it, I have a theory but unless your nephew is a midget I must be wrong as it looks a beast.

I thought it was dog, nearly right.:embarrest:

Either way, never seen one that size.
 
I always kinda thought as much but the old father in law reckons he fell in the water whilst try to get back aboard his boat blitzed, and after a bit of a struggle actually gave up and started just to sink to the bottom until his mate jumped in and dragged him up. Maybe it was just one of his stories he would tell.
