Yes, he tried to teach me in the early years, and I would panic and scratch him Wolverine-style if he went a little distant from me. Over the years, I've become comfortable alone in a shallow pool, and I can keep my head under the water and count to 10, but no longer!
I had a huge collection of swimsuits from Gaisano when I lived in the Philippines, and yes, compared to the prices there, that £26 is expensive. The £26 I believe was for the complete 2 pieces (because the price is only on one even though both have separate tags). However, most British girls would not think twice about purchasing 2 or 3 like that to go on holiday, and never wear them again (simply because they wouldn't want to be seen in the same thing in social media photos).
When I discovered French Connection at discounted prices on eBay, I was most thrilled:)))
