65 Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
Brightening up the morning with a beautiful undulating swim across the bay 😉
An amazing ball of bait fish swirling around in a blur just before the point.
A wave to Timberlie with his mega lens at the point 😉
Then off to Shelly with the huge schools of yellow tail.
8 swimmers enjoyed an early jet black lap this morning, 7 continued on for a double which saw Gaetan and Michael tripled 🙂
Geoff Adams completed his first ever ocean swim last Sunday and was the second highest fundraiser for the event. Fantastic Geoff, well done !!
Paige caught her first ever wave this morning !! She was swimming with Teagan, our youngest swimmer today, aged 11 and ended up on the front of a wave all the way to the shore 🙂
Happy Birthday to Zsolti Djember today 🙂

I’ll be there also. 6.30 in the water!!
It’ll be dark but I think we’ll make it to the end of daylight saving. It surely can’t get too much darker in ten days?

I received a lovely compliment today which I thought I would share with you all!!
Ann C thought I was going through mid life crisis doing the early swims!! So I should be able to look forward to making about 150 on Ann’s calculations.
Thanks for the vote of confidence Ann.

I have just updated to a new Mac computer and printer – AND cordless telephone! All my old stuff goes out with E-waste unless anyone wants to take any of it (free of course). It comprises:
Dell computer about 6 years old, still working but rather slow.
Monitor.
Epson printer, still working but not very upmarket! (Also have 2 unopened cartridges of ink: T038 black double pack and T039 colour, which you can have for $15)
Old white telephone.

That’s hilarious!! If I could I would be in there every day Michael so go for it. Do you think when the clocks change we will be able to do a 615swim ie will it be light enough?If so I may be able to manage that and get to work on time.
