Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I spent a week last summer attempting tumble turns in a villa pool in Portugal. I eventually was able to to them 'most' times, but stopped doing them in the shallow end when I got very scraped!!! Haven't tried them since - would feel silly trying to do them in a crowded pool. Going back to Portugal this year, so will try again then!

I reckon you'll make / lose more time in transition than by turning in the pool. I would advocate practice at changing shoes etc rather than tumble turns.

Not with those Googles see if you can find a snorkle and flippers to go with it ;)

Now I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to hang your servants in transition.
