I bought swimming short this afternoon.. Only I discovered there was some kind of plastic 'saw' attached to the right sidepocket... There was some sort of nail in it which you could slide open.

I wonder where this is used for? I guess it has something to do with surfing, but as I am not actually doing that, I thought I could post it here.

its for when your swiming and get caught up in loads of seaweed you pull out the plastic "saw" and cut your way out

Sorry......I must have been writing my answer at the same time as you.
I normally do my 'throwing people off the scent' posts on Global Surfers

Brundog is in Bali, so I did him a favour and posted on Global that there have been shark sightings at the break he is surfing.......just to make it less busy :D
