Swimming in Clothes or Swimming Fully Clothed
There have been ongoing discussions on the net about this difference.
This wetsite is about getting wet in clothes, whatever you like.
But we feel we should clarify it anyway.
Swimming in clothes could mean any clothes, except regular swimming briefs.
The minimum outfit should be just a T-shirt or jeans.
Most modest swimwear falls into this category.
Swimming in clothes is a popular leisure activity in many regions of the world.
Swimming fully clothed includes socks and shoes, long pants, layers of long sleeve tops or jackets,
or whatever you normally wear.
Most people get wet fully clothed by accident, like in the rain or when they fall into the water.
For keen swimmers it is also a powerful fitness training known as resistance swimming to build strength and endurance.
Others join their friends for a spontaneous swim fully clothed when they didn't bring any swimwear.
Anorak
A hooded pullover type garment with a short zip.
Most have a front pocket to keep bits in when you go swimming.
In Thailand you can get lightweight anoraks that are made of a silky soft fabric which is not waterproof, but dries very quickly.
People put them on for sun protection when they go for a swim.
Baptising
Getting dunked. This can be exciting fun. Be prepared.
Soaking new clothes for the first time, preferably with you in them.
Celebrate this beautiful occasion.
Baptisms are a joyous occasion!
Many churches run baptisms during or after regular services.
This then begs the question, do you wear your sunday best?
With baptism robes, those participating in baptismal ceremonies can conveniently change prior to baptism.
These gowns and robes will allow for full or partial immersion in baptism waters.
Once finished the robes can be easily washed and cleaned for the ultimate in convenience and ease of care.
Cagoule
A hooded pullover type garment with no zips, because zips can get stuck because of mud or sea salt.
Cagoules are therefore well suited for rough or dirty terrain.
They don't hold much water.
Just rinse and go.
Cags can be short or long, down to the knees.
Some cags have a velcro fastener in front of the collar, most have a string in the hood.
Canoeing cags usually don't have a hood, unless they are for seakayaking or expeditions.
Dihydrogen Monoxide (H2O)
A colourless and odourless chemical compound, also referred to by some as
Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid.
Its basis is the unstable radical Hydroxide, the components of which are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.

These are very exciting fun events.

This suspense adds to the excitement.
WAM - Wet And Messy
Wet involves getting soaked in water.
Messy involves mud or gunge or food, etc.
This can get quite slippery.
We're not sure yet where slippery foam and soap fits in.
Are foamparties messy or just wet?
