Seriously. <div><div><div><br /><br /><div>After realising how horridly unfit I am, and as a helping hand to my oh-so-achy joints, I've decided to take up swimming. Well, trying to make the decision anyway.<br /></div><div>Of course, I have to look the part! So I went to my local Rebel Sports today and had a look at their swimwear range, which was on sale!<br /></div><br /><br /><div>I tried on this bright baby (by Speedo):<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340459332688921026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 165px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 175px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgiMCCrsmJ20C1yRkmSNHYB1jCkMAE4itldBgCMMDhxCwFZZCYW6n27Oe0hmHXE532ZVm1t1QLicLW5O2id1gdyi2VSv3UTQOGvnfITzSUDlyGYwb8bWUwZGuyAPx9uCWWq_Euv5rNBYzy/s200/red+bathers.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /></div><div>Until I realised that it gave me back fat that didn't exist in any other garment.
