My wife and I went to the island of Curacao recently. There were 4 of us and Roger and I went scuba diving every day, which is my lifes passion. One day we went on a dive boat and my wife Eve decided she would like to come even though she's in a wheelchair and can't swim. Roger end I had a nice easy, 50 minute dive. Eve was very hot on the boat and said she wanted to cool off, she donned her swim belt, shuffled to the dive platform [I was still in the water] and jumped in. Evidently she expected to bob around like a cork, but of course vanished. The water was about 40ft deep and she seemed to be gone a long time, but could only have been a second or two, she then shot out of the water at an incredible speed with eyes like saucers squawking "I've got bloody water in my ears". Just what else she expected I don't know, she was in no danger and the sight of this was really funny, I had big problems stopping laughing 'til I got a clip round the ear.
