.......and a dreadful photo of me modelling the Water Hammock just uploaded to the Enjoy Kalkan Facebook page (dont ask me how!). I think I do need an upgrade (the body, that is, not the Water Hammock).

Where is that then? .... I've got you down for 11th at Kleo Cafe Bar. Are you also coming along to the Dionysia on the 7th?

Sorry, off topic, maybe PM?
Well, I suppose it's not off topic if you're going to wear your Water Hammock for recognition purposes!

Looking out of the window at the rain hammering down here in Dorset you could quite easily.

Don't open it until you are in Kalkan ... It might take 'til Wed to repack it!

Just bought mine from Can Cans supermarket Kalamar Road after the tip off from Antler in one of his daily reports. 47.50 TL and they inflate it for free! Looks good and I am just about to give it a whirl. They said in the shop that people from Kas are coming to buy them because can can is the only shop in the area that has any left in stock!!!

Well.... I took the chance and took it out of the bag... and managed to twist it and get it back in the bag first time!! It was simps. Have a go!

Skunk · « **Reply #55 on:** June 24, 2012, 07:48:53 PM »

Phew! Will give it a go! SX

I did it! I finally got Water Hammock back in the bag! It took me about 15 minutes.
First, hold it in front of you, palms facing outwards, as per the picture (that was the difficult part, finding a picture of holding it, palms facing outwards). Then, it says, bring your palms together and cross them in front of you and it forms into 3 small circles. Really.
14 of the 15 minutes were spent doing this in the air, without success. At one stage, I put my foot on it, trying to pin it down to keep it stable and ended up in the middle of it wrapped all around me. At this point I started laughing and nearly had a personal accident.
I put the kettle on again and realised I needed to approach the task in a different way - a bit of Out of The Box Thinking on a Monday morning.
So, I crouched down, and did it again, crossing my palms as the WH pushed back against the pool patio, not allowing it to spring away rom me, and there it was, in 3 circles, the precise size as the bag. Better than the magic in Kaya. Brilliant!
All I needed now was the bag. Aha, that was on the other side of the lounge hanging up and I am out by the pool. Dummy.
I have never gripped anything so tightly between my groin and knees before as I wadled across the lounge floor with this "spring thing" between my legs, keeping my hands free for the zip. Still not quite sure why I did that, as I didn't need my hands until I reached the bag? But it is early.
With a bit of pushing and shoving it did fit in its case perfectly, carefully closing the zip so as not to catch the material in it. Job done. I feel quite elated.
But I won't be offering to make their Promotional Video.
Cheers
Steve
