free rum drinks and a deck chair in the shade on the other hand would go well together! at this point it's not the getting down but the getting back up that i'd have trouble with. and yeah, they get in the way more often than you'd think honey. 😊

I'm with you Mook, our skating rink had limbo as well. I was awful at it.
