After 6 weeks away from the B&B swim (the longest time since 2011) I came back from hols to a friendly and welcoming bunch of people… a calm and clear ocean, plus a warmer water temp of 19 degrees. It was glorious! Here we have Greg, Janet and Kitt jumping for joy at the great conditions!
I was also happy to see…post-swim, a man balancing a toilet seat on his nose. Manly just wouldn’t be Manly without it’s ‘Quirkies’!
If anyone left their drink bottle behind, Steve had it (or if they left their toilet seat or pole behind ;-))
There was lots of talk about the fantastic night at the monthly Bluewater dinner last night when Karen interviewed Cameron Daddo, Georgia Boyle and ‘Fabio’. Apologies to Cam and Fabio but most of the chatter was about Georgia’s talk. Georgia is a sex therapist and she gave lots of tips. She also added some more ideas for the ‘Spin Off’ activities attached to the Bold and Beautiful Swim Squad. We have Booty Camps, Yoga, Painting classes, Ukele Bands, Film nights, Cycling etc but Georgia also gives us the opportunity to join an Erotic Writing class or Genital Drawing Group. It really is… so much more than a swim!
7 amers heading in. Just a little wave at the beginning and then flat and gorgeous!

Some people saw an Eagle Ray and a Wobbegong. I didn’t but hope they looked like these I photographed another time!
Melise, Jenny,Shelley, Gemma, Jane, John and ? going in…
Greg and Kitt trying to perfect their joy jumps!
It might have been gloomy outside but it was warm and cosy in Bluewater and conversations were riveting and titillating!
