inspired by Fandango’s One Word Challenge (FOWC) of 25 March 2021, nemesis.
My brother, triathlon trainee,
So he went for a swim in the sea,
He encountered his nemesis,
A man’o’war jellyfish,..
He was lucky I needed to pee
The Sting

You can’t get off that easily – you posted about how much you loiked the seaside only yesterday! That can’t be the penny arcades, surely?
Seriously, we loved Scar, Whit and Brid when we were up there but I never heard of the place you mentioned.

Okay, next I’ll follow the Boy Scout Motto and take a bottle of pee with me 😂
BRID is Bridlington! The south shore beach is near the yacht club, though that sounds posh! It is away from the amusements

Yeah, Sue. it really does work. The ammonia in urine, neutralises the stings and clears them away.
