When Tom was training as an army diver in Bomb Disposal he surfaced

I didn't know eels did damage! Are they like, dunno, giant leeches or
something, then?

Have you seen the teeth on an eel??! As children, we used to swim past
large holes in rocks and scare each other witless with tales of congers!

Congers! Now you're talking

Preferably not when they are. "Smile politely, say 'yes madam' and back
away from the conger". And go home to grow marigolds so you can use the
petals on conger soup!
