Damian pointed out that the ending was a bit of a cliffhanger, but given that I obviously did survive to tell the tale, I remained unconvinced by that arguments and ended defiantly on the sinister note. (In fact -- survival tip! -- I followed my bubbles up through the murky water, and later had the second most unpleasant dental experience of my life.) That's my family there -- and the chalk uplands that were once all sea are the Dorset Downs. So, why are they called Downs when they're up?
I knew the answer once, but I've forgotten it now.
