Sorry for the corny blog title, I was stuck for titles this morning… But we did welcome back Ian and Pauline, Martin and Jim (not a couple ;-)) from their cruise around Tahiti!! It was a cold, miserable morning but there were plenty of warm smiles down at B&B Central and the water was… calm,...

Lovely to be back in the Ocean – (after a stint in the mountains with blizzards and high winds.)     Water was a chilly 17.1 degrees. Air Temp about 12 degrees.   Wonderful light warmed us up, with a stunning sunrise.   Water was calm and clear.     Over at Shelly there was...

Everything is a wave, a frequency.  The universe is music, and you are a symphony. Your spine, the oldest part of your central nerve system, contains foundational neural networks that are constantly firing patterns of signature frequencies.  This music provides rhythms that allow your heartbeat, your breathing and basic movement including walking and swimming. Clarity...

A nude blog was always going to be tough without well accustomed Rainer. And being a bit too conservative myself, I had to call on help from a relative visiting from the Ol’ Country, you know the one. So please welcome, all the way from our village in the mountains, where his name comes from, my cousin, ‘Boruit‘....

The day started with the discovery that the ‘just past 6.00am…..we leave when we are ready B&B  group’ are not Saturday swimmers, not this Saturday anyway ! We are only recent converts to the odd pre 6.30am swim so we needed ernest discussions varying on the theme of “will we or won’t we?!?” go it alone....

I have not been swimming for a while. I sort of forgot my routine and what I needed to do to get to the swim and then on to work. It is good to have good habits. I have been told that getting rid of bad habits can only happen if you replace them with...

While we were all celebrating our own Lisa Darmanin’s silver medal at the Olympics yesterday in the Nacra class, today the swimmers who took on the Bold and Beautiful swim from Manly to Shelly struck gold – a spectacular sunrise, nice clear, calm, warm water, cuttlefish and even some Dusky Whalers. The sunrise was just...

Everyone loves a good celebration! Birthdays are extra special and today we helped Lainey celebrate her big day.     Lainey was swamped by her adoring friends and well wishers. Everyone loves Lainey! She does so much for so many, so it was lovely to be able to spoil her. She is such a special...

Morning All and what a fine start it was. You are probably all wondering why it is that Tuesday’s blog is so early when most of you are resigned to seeing it around midnight. Well, today I didn’t swim but did walk as far as the path would take me. Having been struck down by...

My first blog and third swim after 6 weeks in Italy & UK, there really is no place like home. Pre-dawn light, 5:55 am.     Lights from Queensie to Freshie.       I like swimming with the 6:10am crew.     Sisters, Ali & Clair in the pre-dawn light.     Settle down  girls.  ...
