Yes it is getting cooler which means there’s a completely new way to dress in the morning for B&B.   There’s the functional way to dress – love the scarf and uggies. There’s the “done the swim now off to do business” look of Jim and Sarah. A raincoat is not out of the question even...

Just love this one of Les Bubbles and Jill.   Brian, Annie and Penny, beautiful smiles.   JK Leading the gang out to the point! …It was chilly “getting in” today.   Beautiful and colourful ladies..   Happy snaps at Shelly   Henrietta & friend, getting ready to go   Michelle & Martin, on their...

We’re better at noticing changes out of the corner of our eye. The cells in your retina, for peripheral vision are more sensitive to subtle change (technically called ‘flicker’), than the central vision, which is adapted for focused detail analysis. This might explain why the more we focus on finding happiness, the more elusive it...

Despite a forecast of an almost 5 metre swell, our little piece of paradise was a sea of tranquility. Yes, it’s Mother’s Day. That one morning of the year when children wake up so excited about being able to surprise their mothers with breakfast in bed to show their love and gratitude. Except for some...

In the words of JP… well that escalated quickly! Sure it looks beautiful, but it was a cold start to the day down at our favourite swim… from over 20 in the water to 18 degrees, and my car was telling me 11 degrees air temp. Here is proof… though I think it was actually...

Following the historic meeting between North and South Korea, then a Federal Budget where we are all winners, poker faced swimmers were looking for three of a kind this morning and we came up trumps. Not trumps like Donald and Melania but trumps in the mindful meditative way that we settle into in May. Yet...

Another set of fabulous conditions for those chasing the personal best times. An occasional meter of swell but combined with a north-west zephyr hardly even being registered, made for a very clean surface. We will see a small SE Pulse tomorrow but then it will fall away to nothing by end of the week along with the air temperatures. The...

Sun’s up… So what? So, it’s another day. Another chance to get it right. Well, at least a little more right-er than yesterday. And that sun, almost 1.4 million km across and burning at a bright 5,500º C, is a free ticket to do it. If you’re serious about improving your health, you first need...
