68 Bold & Beautiful swimmers
enjoyed a tip top swim in beautiful calm water
with just enough of a wave to wake you up as you walk in
David was very happy to have his brother, Owen in the swim with us this morning 🙂
Check out how gorgeous it was ‘at the point’ too ! A stunning day 🙂
Simon ‘made’ me swim over to Shelly fast, well at least hard this morning. I’m tired now, he looks fine though 🙂
Andrew’s pretty damn excited to have swum 6 days out of the last 7. Go you good thing, keep it up 🙂
Russell dives into swim back 🙂
a damn nice swim it was too !
7 early lappers swam at 6.30am when they all saw a huge numbfish at Shelly after he tapped Shaun on the foot – cute 😉 3 also went up to Queensie. 4 swimmers also continued on for a bonus double lap after the regular swim too.
Happy birthday to Izzy Kirk, Chris Le Serve and Celso Grati today !
Izzy for sure has had a fabulous start to her special day what with all the cuddles, a great swim, birthday songs and cake at brekkie. What more could a girl want for her birthday 🙂
It’s only gonna get better too as it’s Trivia Night Tonight !!!
Yeh it’s finally here. Only 9 hours to go (at time of publishing). It’s gonna be a fantastic night. See you all at 6.30pm unless you’d like to come a little earlier to theme up your tables.
If you haven’t yet checked out all the prizes and hot auction items that are up for grabs tonight please do so here There’s lots, well worth the look !!
For example this stunning 112 x 76cm print very generously donated by Sprout Daily and beautifully and generously framed by Art Smart at Seaforth COULD BE YOURS if you bid for it in our Live Auction at half time !!
See you tonight as well as at 7am tomorrow morning for a swim. No sleep in’s allowed after a big night you know 😉

Great conditions, lovely b’day cake, a race to Shelly with Rob after he announced he was going to leave me behind today:-)
Have a great evening and we’ll look f/w to the pics and seeing you all in the water tomorrow, Rainer especially!!!
I think my black swim watch got left on or under the bench by the shower and wasn’t there when I went back after brekkie to check. Did anyone behind me (i.e. a double-lapper) see it?

This is probably a hopeless request, but I lost my cap on saturday. It had my fluorescent orange earplugs inside, and was wondering if anyone found it?

RAINER!
Nick says to tell you to wear something colourful for tonight’s trivia. Your table will have a clown theme. Let’s hope it’s not indicative of how you will feel after losing the quiz contest to our table.
Yours humbly (hrm),
Svenska Anna at the Around the World table 🙂
