He's especially good at expectorating!
Nobody else remembers that song from Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame, do they? Just me? Good, good.
I have discovered how to get a clear lane at a crowded pool at lunchtime: get a cold; recover apart from a pound of lungbutter; take a strong expectorant cough medicine; swim. Every hundred metres or so, enough gack becomes sufficinetly loosened that you have to stop to hack and gark for a moment. After a few repetitions of this performance, the medium lane is empty, the slow lane is crammed and the fast lane has near-Parisian traffic problems. Heh.
Found a new sweet spot today, synchronising the hip roll with the recovery arm's lift from the water. All very rolly. I think its a sustainable, hit-your-rhythm thing, but since my secret identity is Captain Catarrh, I can't confirm that just yet.
