Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER.

Have a good day, Kris.
I have this problem all the time. Oh to be a kid again and not worry!
