Well it is the commonwealth games dude. :p
Plus, all hail the swimming competitions. Here you learn how to swim fast, I get eaten by a great white or tiger shark with suitably music played by the local orchestra. ;)

Post by: Flipside on March 20, 2006, 06:06:40 am: I recommend backstroke, that way you can escape and wave for help at the same time ;)
