Do people not swim with icecreams in other countries?

Never heard of anyone doing it no, so probably not? 🤷

Huh. Stuff I never expected to be unique to Oz.

Swimming with something that can't get wet is not unheard of here. I sometimes swim a book over to somewhere to read, or a phone to a good place for a photo too.

See, that IS completely unheard of here! If it's not supposed to be wet, we wouldn't dream of swimming with it!

I don't know if it's because you guys are born excellent swimmers like Norwegians are with skiing, but I don't know ANYONE who wouldn't assume that swimming with something invariably means getting it wet 😄
