02/07/18 – Wonderful Present

02/07/20180

Some guy called Socrates once said, the unexamined life is not worth living. It’s worth noting that he didn’t say, the unanswered life is not worth living. I guess that means life is a question, but not necessarily one with an answer. Then to be engaged in life, ‘to live fully’ would be ‘to remain in the question’.

But what does that mean, to remain in the question?

It’s probably something like, an ability to suspend your presuppositions to the point where the awe and wonder of the moment feels welcome enough to make itself known to you.

You remember, that thing you did when you were a kid.

Monthly Dinner – 10th July 2018 – Guest Speaker

The next B&B monthly dinner for the year will be held on Tuesday 10th July at 6.30 pm at Bluewater Restaurant. Our guest speaker on the night will be sailor and B&B swimmer, Matt Hayes, who represented Australia at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Matt and his crew of Rob Iles, Syd Seymour and Nicky Kukulka will talk about their upcoming two-year world circumnavigation aboard a Dufour class 56 feet yacht. Hear about the route they will sail, the pitfalls, dangers, highlights, yacht and personal preparations, oceans they will cross and the countries they will visit.

The cost of the dinner is great value at only $25 a head, which includes shared entrees, and a selection of mains to choose from (including a vegetarian option). Glasses of beer or wine and desserts are also available at the special price of only $5 each. Numbers are limited, so bookings are essential:  To avoid disappointment and secure your spot please book HERE.

Winter Badge

The Winter swimming season is finally here!

Although the water temperature may be a little colder than you might like, there are several advantages of swimming in winter, including flat seas, good visibility and no bluebottles.

Perhaps the biggest advantage is that you can also qualify for a winter badge by swimming a minimum of 20 times between 1st June and 31st August.

You must also swim in at least 7 different weeks. If you manage to do all of your qualifying swims without a wetsuit (or other thermal enhancing equipment), you will also qualify for the coveted WWW badge (Winter without wetsuit).

So start now, and don’t forget to log your swims to qualify.
