“Beware of Ocean Bullies”
“I was swimming along yesterday towards Shelly Beach (just minding my own business) and bang, I was stopped in my tracks by a jelly fish. We tussled a bit but it would not move. Finally I relented and went around. Sore nose now … ”

This crystal-clear shot is by Alison Harmer. It is (most of) the ones who peeled off Shelly doubles yesterday – legends! (As with all blogging photos; simply click on image to enlarge)

Midge (black stripes) couldn’t care less about my arm being torn off at the elbow by a fatally poisonous jellyfish, so I’m cutting-off her head …

I love this beachy space after the swim. Bustling yet peaceful. Friendly faces. Glassy sea with nice rollers. Nippers on the sand; dogs sniffing hello; fun chats, and freshly salt-sewn air. What a blessed place to be, so early into any new day …
Merry Christmas everyone – and thank you all … for your company since July this winter. So glad I finally joined up
🙂

Roger, you’re a legend. I laughed my way through all those photos. A big blue jelly got me on the arm this morning, but at least I didn’t try to sniff it!

Great blog Rodger. Great new perspective.
Congratulations 007 on your new status. Huge accomplishment.
I was fortunate enough to have my 1000k badge for three days before you created the new benchmark.
Thank you for putting us back in the shade.
I had a secret meeting with Dr Noak today to discuss. He expressed his concern of how your feat will effect his “Day of Glory” when he achieves the 1000k mark. We are all concerned that Lippy might miss out on the limelight.
Just a note, has anyone noticed a baby is now logging on?
