How lucky are we on this seventh day? VERY! Today lets explore the lucky number SEVEN.
Of course, every morning SEVEN am is important to the B&B swimmers. Why? Because that’s the time we get wet! 365 days of the year!
At the moment our lovely sunrises at …….SEVEN.
There are SEVEN seas, SEVEN continents, SEVEN colours in a rainbow, and SEVEN days in a week. (Sunday being the most glorious one of course)
Marije is lucky to have her new friend with her today. Welcome Tara!
If we were playing rugby today, wouldn’t it be the rugby SEVENS?
Here’s our team! Team B&B.
Lucky for us, we’ve found missing Lions player Brian O’Driscoll rumour has it he was busy last night preparing for a swim with us this morning. Welcome Brian!
One for the ladies! David Beckham’s number when playing for Manchester United was ….SEVEN!
And look David turned up today! Lucky us I say!
Look at all these lucky people arriving to enjoy a glorious swim. Lucky!
Here’s our rugby SEVENS…..strolling on to the ‘pitch’ for the game!
TOGETHERNESS……that’s what we experience! Every day! Swimming together to Shelly and back! In Chinese culture, the number SEVEN symbolises togetherness. Alyson is together with us again, her first swim after Lukas arrived! Welcome back.
The ancient world was declared to have SEVEN wonders in it! I bet our bit of the ocean would make the list! Is this a SEVENTH wonder?
Guess the backside competition time!
Is this guy in SEVENTH heaven?
B&B News. This guy was found to be wearing Lips rashie!
So many of us tomorrow are lucky as we will be in our SEVENTH week and qualify for our Winter badge ……..AND I am feeling lucky as I will be able to blog next week with a wetsuit on!!!!
There are also those SEVEN deadly sins or sinners!
On the twenty SEVENTH of this month …….B&B Ball.
There are only a couple of tables left!
Book your ticket at: I’m off to the ball
Transported back to the 1920’s for A night of fun and laughter!

So sorry for all those that posed for me at Shelly today. The technology has gone wobbly (not so lucky!) I’ll post on Facebook instead!

Great swim, great theme.
Can’t you “un-wobble” the tech and add those hilarious Shelly pics here later?
All I’ll say about the backside pic is that the owner asked for that pic to be taken!! BlogTart Star for sure:-)

Great blog Snorks! What a beautiful morning.
Shame Elaine’s extraordinary Shelly Beach photo bomb didnt make it onto the blog due to the technical wobbles..
I’d like to apologize to the gentleman in the last photo.

Poor guy was only trying to have a swim and was accosted by the mad German who thought he’d stolen his rash vest!
Clearly this isn’t yours Lips – it isn’t see thru!!
