On my honeymoon in Dominican Rep...
My new wife and I were lounging by the pool in the sun. There were few people about as the pool we were at was a bit out of the way. My wife at the time was reading her book and i was just looking out for any talent that might wander by.

Well, talent there was not, but there was a rather large lady who arrived by the pool with her lady friend. Large lady and mate deposited all their many belongings on the oposite side of the pool form us. Amoung the many items was a large inflatable lilo, the type that folds into an arm chair type of thing. So, after faffing about the large lady eventually drags the lilo over to the pool edge and folds it into the armchair position. She places it in the pool and went back to grab her book and her drink.

At this point I had given my wife a nudge and said "Look at this...". Queue fat lady leaping backwards off the pool edge, book in one hand (opened to the page she wanted to read by a thumb), drink in the other, onto her floating armchair which sat about 12 inches ABOVE the water. Well, top heavy ships dont tend to float and neither did she. After the huge splash she popped to the surface still with book and drink in hand with a priceless look on her face. At this point my wife and I were almost wetting ourselves with laughter besides the almost empty pool area. Her mate looked at us too and gave an awkward smile but it was obvious that she wanted to laugh too.
