No you are only wet when you get out of the water. That's why folk use soap in the bath or shower. It's pig fat really but the soap sellers call it floculant,......I think.
I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..

Well, of course you are! No question about it. Here's a pome I just composed in honour of this post:
ReplyDeleteWater is wet,
Water is blue,
Water is funny,
And so are you!
Thank you, RWP. I think!

ReplyDeleteWhaaaaat? But thanks anyway, Adrian.
DeleteI'd say yes. Maybe I'm not thinking about it hard enough?
ReplyDeleteI think not, but I’m not sure why, Patsy.
Deleteif you are totally immersed aren't you saturated? And, if you don't get out you are drowned!
ReplyDeleteAh, but is that the same as wet, Jill? Drowning is a whole new subject....
DeleteJill's last sentence definitely has a point!
ReplyDeleteA point certainly, Meike!
DeleteInteresting... I don't know the answer but guess we only feel wet when already dry before water touches us?
ReplyDeleteSomething like that, Rosemary. My granddaughter has just posed another one: is water wet? Hm.
