Finally, proof I'm not lying when I try to explain to friends/family it's like there's more jelly than water.

Pucker time fellas (don't fall off!)

Rub olive oil on to the exposed skin and leave soak in for an hour before heading out on the water.
Works a treat.

I imagine in 30 degree heat, you would end up as pork crackle. I'm pretty sure the stinging blubbers would be the last thing on your mind.

I remember Botany being like that once upon a time, but thankfully not for quite a while!

I get that heaps, expecially for vids. I blame Internet explorer, all seems to work on Mozilla.

Chrome > Mozilla > IE.

IE gets used once in the life of the computer... to download Chrome.
