Doing the thing we love!

A morning to reflect on our community and the swim we get to enjoy. __________________ FUNDRAISER for St Lukes Water Polo trip to Hawaii. Pink turkish towels will be on sale this Saturday 25 July. 1 for $30 or...

Did you see the sunrise ?    What a Cracka  !!

When I was younger it was great to stay up all night and get to see the sunrise, but now sadly ! an  older & wiser me loves to  get up early to see the sunrises & what a cracka it was !!!     Iphones & cameras  were all snapping the sunrise on the beaches...

21/7/15 Clear and Glassy

  Well its Tuesday and a lovely one at that. Following on from yesterday’s Mick Fanning attack I’m sure that big fins and sharks were on the minds of a few of us. No big nasties today, although Derrick had a nasty sting on his arm.   No Yoga today, its a bit chilly.  ...

Monday 20th July 2015 – Did you see the Mick Fanning shark attack?

“Did you see the Mick Fanning shark attack?” was the word on everyone’s lips as I arrived at 5.55am for a pre-dawn swim with Fiona’s crew.     http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/jul/19/surfer-mick-fanning-battles-shark-attack-at-j-bay-open-im-just-tripping Fiona’s “6am swim in the dark crew”.   We left Shelly @6.28am passing a smaller Drinky squad mid-bay. Clair, feeling cold, sprinted to the point but...

19/07/2015 B&B The Musical !

Mornin’ all. MEFF inner westies here. Fi1 has excelled this week with an ambitious Paul Kelly tribute. But first, the intro bits. Lovely cold winter morning – 4 degrees, water was 16.6. Swimmers: quite a few, newbies – don’t think so. Songs matched to the text and photos. Here we go! They say the darkest...

Sat 18/7: Let’s be brief

  Booties, gloves, thermal head gear, sleeveless and full wetsuits.  I’m seeing a lot of gear at the moment.  However, don’t forget that there are many swimsuit options when it comes to getting your winter badge!  Bikinis and budgie smugglers, one pieces, trisuits, rashy and boardie combinations, even the birthday suit has had some airplay...

Friday 17th:  Somewhere it’s snowing like billy-oh

I can’t sleep.  Wind is whistling through the trees outside.  The cat’s snoring.  And I don’t want to get up for a pee.  First thwacks of fat raindrops at 4.50 a.m.  By 6.20 a.m, Booty Camp is into today’s plan: working on the butt.   — While at the Management Palm, dawn devotees are bowing...

Everything is biting everything else…

Great morning… rain has set in now, but lovely at 7am… about 80 swimmers and slightly warmer water than yesterday (though my very fashionable wetsuit material head bonnet has come back out)   Reports from 6:30am Captain Drinksy that there were pink jimbles in the bay sent most of the group north… but not the...

15/07/2015 – The Swim that Smiles :-) :-)

  Receiving a big, friendly smile is one of the best starts to your day and when you do our swim you get plenty! The clock showed a mere 2 degrees this morning but that, nor the threat of jimbles… deterred 120 of us pink cappers from getting in that ocean this morning!  A few...

14/7/15 – A Wayward Wander North

Morning all and welcome to 16 degrees of water temperature, 60cm of south swell on a 10 second interval with a barely perceptible 10 knots of snow temps westerly. Expecting a further drop to near lake-like conditions over the next few days. The only dilemma this morning was a few pesky Jimbals so the decision was taken...
