Can you swim?
 

Amazingly around 24% of adults cant swim :shrug:


Are you a non swimming grown up and if so why?

I can swim and I can swim fast

Yes

yes i can swim

yes i love swimming even though i haven't swam for like 8 years

I could, I had certificates and stuff and in school we had races and I always won. But when on holiday in Portugal for 3 weeks, I spent most of my time in the swimming pool and caught a big infection, I never swam again. Up until 3 months ago, in a local swimming pool where I almost drowned.

I was like that on a bike about 2 years ago. Because I hadn't rode one for so long it took me a while and I crashed into a tree.

Such a sad story - and they say you never forget :worry:

I can Swim


Swimming in the Bahamas
was Bliss

I swam for 3 months is a small bay on Magnetic island each day and as there was a shark net on the bay did so without a care in the world. One day after my time on the island was nearly up I went out on the rocks to the end of the bay and looked down on the shark net

and it was full of big shark shaped fecking holes

:fist:
:umm2:

Yes i can swim - but i would prefer not too - i piggin hate water and what swimming pools do to your skin - even worse the sea full of excrement !

I actually learn't to swim on holiday in Switzerland - my uncle John popped my rubber ring halfway across a lake (he was an excellent swimmer) and i made it to the other side. Then i realised i had to swim all the way back !

He had a massive rubber dingy with an outboard motor and on holiday in Spain he taught us all how to dive - he would take all us kids way out til the beach was out of site and push us off the edge of the boat ! So i'm not too bad a diver either - still have no urge to do it ever again Thankyou

The event that made me hate swimming was in Italy as a young girl on holiday and they charged to use the beach ! What neck - we went swimming and there were huge turds floating about ! it was totally disgusting so i've not been keen on ever getting in water since.

I'm not a soap dodger either - thats different

Yes I can swim.

Yes I can swim.
Was in a swimming club as a kid, used to go skinny dipping at the Dam as well:blush:

Yes, I love swimming.

I can but I'm pretty crap at it and don't enjoy it that much. Can deal with it abroad at a nice sunny beach but then really I'll just bob around in the sea relaxing rather than do much actual swimming

Yep. I love it.

My dad learned me to swim when I was a toddler.

Very slowly.

I learnt when I was 11 to swim in the deep end because my brother threw me in and it triggered me because I nearly drowned when I was 8 and didn't go near water for ages.

I can swim. Although usually only swim once a year now if I go to Spain. When I'm a bit fitter I want to get back into swimming as a weekly thing, it's quite an enjoyable form of exercise.

Poorly imo
