13 ‘ticked’ Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
Well that’s the lowest number of swimmers we’ve had for a while and I was the only girl !!
Shame it was a bonus, jump 20km up the Pacific Swim today… 😉
We were all united in our swim to and from half way beach and an adventurous swim it was too.
Today’s second photo was thanks to Marc from the cafe at half way.
Noticably we had as many people for après swim as we had for the swim itself, but it was noted that four of our après swim friends were dry !!
Tim’s fact of the day: “Great White Sharks can go as long as three months without eating.”
Happy birthday to Timberlie Ettle today 🙂
Tim was out celebrating his birthday yesterday and somehow Nick TB Dowson seems to have featured in the photos that Linda kindly submitted… I’m happy to report that Nick did show up for a swim this morning with his little swimmer friend…
Surprisingly Tim was too shy to wear the present that we so thoughtfully bought for him, but thankfully Michel is a real friend and was happy to model it for us 😉
Our trivia night is filling up fast, but there are still a couple of seats available, so if you would like to join in the fun on Wednesday 26th October please let me know asap. To check out the competition please click here.

Should we be getting concerned about our fellow male swimmers masculinity?????

I’ve been thinking the same thing Linda! Should we be concerned? It’s kind of cute all the boys in pink 🙂

LOL, Mich, you look like a Gay extra from a bad 1940’s Sinbad the Sailor movie in those PJ’s.

Bravo intrepid swimmers.
I scored a purple stinger in the face on saturday so I found it near impossible to brave the stormy waters this morning. I will be rearing to go tomorrow for sure, me and my lumpy face.
btw How much per person for the trivia night? Do I just thrust cash upon Julie?
cheers,

Hi Fiona, sorry to hear about your sting 🙁
Trivia night is $25 each, yes you can just bring cash to a swim and I will exchange for a ticket 🙂
Look forward to seeing you in the morning
