Of course you got shrinkage to deal with too :mrgreen:

Really have not tried it outside of surfing though, but I do know nothing beats the ocean. Just too lazy to fill up a trashcan and have at it. Once of these days I will get my act together


Thought of filling up the trash can but the potential smell put me off :mrgreen:

The shrinkage aint funny unless your the wife :roll:

Last twice I tried the reheating of the body took far too long for my liking.

When we are sharing a pint, ask me about the shrinkage incident when I went surfing in the very early spring and the Japanese female tourists :shock:

They thought it was a Sushi roll so whipped out the soya sauce & chop sticks to take a mouth full whilst it was still fresh :mrgreen:

Should I be drinking my pint whilst your telling me this or is it going to result with cider spat all over the table as I try not to choke whilst laughing:?:
