Simon, who loves cricket actually, never got into sports because, of course, his hands were these precious objects, right?

Totally not right, by the way.

He's extremely into deadlifting and heavy weights.

So pianists out there, go for it.

But one day he said, hey, I booked us kayaking.

I was like, okay.

Now, the only times I've been kayaking was in a river, a stream even.

We're not talking like rapids.

We're talking really calm, straight waters, no waves.

It was a very wavy day.

And I'd only ever ridden a kayak as like a one-person kayak, but he got a two-person kayak.

I was in the front.

He was in the back.

I was on day one of my period.

Indeed, it was getting stormy.

The weather was not helpful at all and was strangely like a pathetic fallacy of my own internal turbulence.

I was just really not on that day.

And so he's like, OK, showing me this little map, like, let's go to this little beach over here.

So we're going.

And again, I'm not used to being in a two person canoe or whatever kayak that we were in.
