94 Bold and Beautiful Swimmers – 4 newbies!
WHAT a difference from yesterday! It was actually warmer IN the water than out!
Air temp was: 13 … Water temp was: 19.5!
We had a bit of everything this morning!
Dark ominous clouds, Drinky smiling….(these 4 photos from Fifi)
Ian has recruited Manly LS Club Management to sign up Bold and Beautiful Newbies! It’s all very professional now! Just Kidding! They are in fact there to sign people up to become members of the Manly LS Club! It’s a great idea – there are different levels of membership. Hopefully they will be there tomorrow morning as well. Despite the dodgy looking photo they were very nice and helpful! And they let me check out the new facilities which look great!
Billy DESPERATE to be on today’s blog! 🙂
Dr John is back from the UK..(talking to Sparkles)
Vicki went through the waves!
Below 2 photos – before and after a wave came through!
Rusty and his new pants – he pulled them down just after this photo but my camera missed it…again! 🙁
Waves!
Cockatoos!
….next 4 photos from Fifi of the 6.30am swimmers…
NOW! Who can guess what is going on here!?!?! Rusty has now opened up his shower for BnB’ers! **terms and conditions apply.
** must be female, hot and willing to share the shower with him! 😀
Below is Vicki! Did you know she donates the pink caps you get when you first swim with Bold and Beautiful! So far I think she has donated around 15,000 caps!! Take a look at your cap and see on the side it says Access Communications. This is her Company … please check out her website http://www.accesscomms.com.au/ – THANKS VICKI!!!
AND next time you see her say hello and give her a BIG HUG of thanks!! 😀
OH! That’s it folks! Despite the ‘weather’ the water was clear and lovely, another wonderful swim!

Nice blog anon – good candid camera shots.
I understand Manly LSC Sidewalk Membership Sale was offering $500/year associate memberships enabling changing room use and eligible to pay 20c per shower. If you’re really keen you can get your Bronze Medallion for about $400 and gain lifelong skills then pay about $150/year.
Alternately for far less than $500 and not even 20c a day we understand Rusty is offering shared showering facilities adjacent to Manly Wine. Full details at http://www.showersceneswithrusty.com

Those thunderous clouds were very atmospheric.

I think we can all guess your witty, cheeky style of writing by now Legsley and it does say posted by Lesbubbles! What happened to Joe Earl and Fiona who were going to do a blog together? Thanks for saving the day yet again and delivering another great blog!
Hasn’t Vicky H got the most gorgeous smile/ Thanks for the caps Vicky. Rusty, you know how inclusive we are at the B&B. I think you should open your shower to all! (Could we see how many we can fit in Rusty’s shower on my blog day, Thursday? 😉

Great team-work, Fifi and Lesley. Agree about the witty style:-D (giveaway sign off)!
Yeh, we’re all waiting for that inclusive hot shower-key. Some of us have even promised to swim without wetsuits! Hitch seems to be that once Annie & Bella get into the shower, no one can get them out:-))
Thankful returnee

It was a moody morning, with all those dark clouds. But the water was warm, and it was fun swimming with the wind whipping up a bit of spray on the surface and a few little waves to catch. Better still: I managed to catch a few extra cuddles (using the cold weather as an excuse!)
Anon-e-mouse has done a great job of capturing the feeling of the day!

Most definitely Lainey-Loo. Make sure your camera is charged, lens is clean and you have your video settings correct so we can post at http://www.showersceneswithrusty.com . The records to beat are more than 7 (Rusty + 6 women) or more than 1 for male only. There are possibly more than one shower which opens new options too.

Superb swim. Despite the dark clouds.
Love those more ‘intimate’ mornings with < 100 swimmers. Rare opportunity to shake everyone's hand. Blog tarting was painful though. First I was desperately looking for Robbie. Then I was told Joe Earl was filling in. Eventually, word on the ramp was that Joe would blog remotely and a number of swimmers would provide him with photos. How on earth is one to blog tart amidst all this ambiguity?

Fiona’s battery went flat .. I thought surely one of the other bloggers will turn up with their camera’s?! BUT noone did!!! So I had to borrow Ian’s Newbie camera, stuff it up my cozzie and off I went 🙂
(and yes Joe did offer to blog remotely – thanks Joe)
and thanks Fi!

Sorry Lips – I did stand next to you at one point at Shelly but you completely ignored me, no doubt because you didn’t know it was me who was blogging! ;-p

Yes beautiful, moody, atmospheric photos Fifi but I think Drinky looks handsomer in real life. Welcome back Dr John!!
