Yep.

On my wishlist is the english translation of the dutch saying

  koudwatervrees

Literaly translated:

  fear of cold water.


It originates from lakes in the summer time.
Swimmers allready in the water are enjoying the water.
Those not yet in the water having 'koudwatervrees'
They assume cold water ...


So send in those translations.
I'm also curious about synonyms for koudwatervrees in other
languages/cultures.


( Or is "Things always seem harder when they're in front of you."
  the english way to say 'koudwatervrees' ?)
