57 Bold and Beautiful Swimmers
AND another beautiful morning…..
New yellow markings greeted us this morning at the Surf LS Club – we now have to keep our bags away from the inside of them…outside the blue door and outside the main entrance of the surf club…and definitely no lying down between them!:-D
Everyone keen to get into the cold water for their BIG HIT for the day!
The sun trying it’s best to warm us… as some freaky waves hit us walking in… Even though the waves were ‘fairly big’ the majority – including scaredy cat me – went in from the beach…some went in from half way – Including “Legend Anne E”…who despite having a recent back operation is determined to get her winter badge!!!
Some nice back of waves shots as the pink hats headed through…
Heidi did the LET’S GO honours today!!
A Super ROLLY POLLY swim over to Shelly – at one point I didn’t know where I was! Visibility NADA!
The smiles at Shelly – hee hee ….I am sure they were in there somewhere… ;-D
Thanks to everyone who sang Happy Birthday to me!! Can’t believe I am 30 – so old!!! 😀

Happy Birthday Cuz! I don;t think there are too many bags in the B&B so most should be ok between the lines. Is reading between the lines permitted?

Happy Birthday Lesley! We must organise a birthday night out, ending up at…The Boatshed of course!
Can’t believe so many people are coming to Newport to see a dead whale. Don’t they know they can swim with live ones if they come and join us!

Happy Birthday Leslie
Yes the yellow lines are very subtle. Could they fix up the gals change room now they know we exist?
