IMO It's not really the warmth that you need them for - although it certainly helps. Its more that it's almost impossible to drown in a swimming wetsuit. Even if you cramp up hard and are unable to move you float on the surface. I was always a bit dubious about cramp being a thing until I had it really bad in a deep pool. Only just managed to get to the side and needed two life guards to help stretch out my leg. Not sure I'd want to be open water swimming without one tbh.Leave a comment:

I grew up of the generation that didn't use them much - now they're di rigueur for everyone at the seaside - but I don't know how people who swim or surf without wetsuits in UK waters managed it!
Even in the balmy Cornish waters it's not exactly pleasant and I still see people in Scotland surfing in just shorts!Leave a comment:

Check out Dr Atkins Diet, his method once you are down to your desired weight means finding your daily carb limit. Mine is 52g. With alcohol you have to remember that the first thing digested is the alcohol. I like to think 1g of Alcohol is 1g of carbs. G+T slimline has 0 official carbs.Leave a comment:

Not that I do either, but I know people that do.
