21 ‘ticked’ Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
It might have been wetter out than in today but it was a lovely swim.
The conditions were lovely, flat and relatively warm this morning which was a nice surprise !!! 🙂
Aelwyn Norton was radiant and full of smiles at Shelly Beach this morning, in fact to quote Aelwyn: “Gosh this is beautiful, I just love it here when it’s raining.”
Stephen Coulter kindly took the first photo this morning as he thought we should all appreciate Jenny Knapman’s view of swimming 😉 🙂
44 people have currently qualified for their winter badge so far !! 🙂 195 swimmers are currently on target and 80 people need to swim soon if they are going to stay in the running for their badge – go on you know you want too, you will regret it at badge ceremony morning in September if you don’t 😉
Celso Grati an Catrin Jonsson where are you guys ?? You have been very noticeable by your absence, hope you guys are well and hope to see you soon.

It absolutely does ! My mindless forgetfulness is totally at fault and there is no excuse as your heroic swim should have been at the forefront of my mind ;-). My humble apologies !

I’m meant to take tomorrow off….
But I really enjoy the 6:20.
I guess I may turn up just to witness the lack of the red hooded pike fish.

One of the reasons I want to go at 6:20 tomorrow is that the 1 hour in the water is about as much time as I spend outside when the weather is like this.

Iain will be there!
Michael Christie probable not so despite the 40 meter reduction in travel distance to get to the club by 6:20.
