    I heard on the radio this morning that Mermaid is now a profession.  Well, you can get a job as a mermaid.  I think they swim about in tanks or do parties or something.  I would give it a go if my bumb didn't look big in it.

    Does one need gills? and the thought of smelling like a sardine ewe!

    No, there is an air pip in the tank.  They swim up to it and take a lung full.  They then go for a swim and come back for more air.  Some tanks hide the tube behind plants and things.  I think some tanks have fish and other sea life in them.  So yeah, you probably end up smelling like you have taken a dip in the ocean, but no gills needed.
