I’ve been asked by management to start with the announcement that the swim group is suspended. I think that means for everyone not to start at 7am .
I started swimming at 6.15 and was greeted by a beautiful pink sky I’ve seen on everyone’s Facebook posts this week ,
Ian checking out the water before getting in , it’s been two weeks since my last visit and a joy to see familiar faces.
I swam alone but saw a few little groups , one reported seeing a huge turtle somewhere in line with the point but heading to the bower break. Not my lucky day
this wise lady started alone and early.
I saw Ian also doing the wise thing, exercising alone in a beautiful environment, heading out to the bower break.
Upon my return people were starting , John on the left being a bit vain , maybe, but kindly informed me today is Tony’s 1000km swim! Well done tony 🥳
During the week I bumped into Huw at the bakery
I also saw Gino out and about one morning,
Jenny and I had a bike ride last weekend
Don’t forget to support local businesses, I got a take away Coffee from Bluewater and found others doing the same.
One water shot before I leave you, I’ve been told we should all pretend we have the virus and don’t want to spread it. Stay safe and away from crowds, until next blog , edwina 💖

Thanks Ed. I have found my allergies are going nuts from not washing my sinuses in the salty water!

Thanks for blogging Ed. I swam at midday-ish, only saw a couple of familiar faces…SO LONELY WITHOUT YOU ALL

Thank you Edwina!
I read somewhere recently (Ian Verrander SMH i think) that online gambling is up 67% since the shut down. Very sad. I did wonder though, whether we could have a guessing competition as to when the BnB will be “back” – as in all swimming together to the point, waiting for JK’s sonorous “Let’s go”, together again at Shelly, and of course plenty of hugs (and possibly even the odd kiss) before and after, not to mention staying to chat over a coffee or breakfast for as long as we want, as close as we want!! 6 months? a year?? I guess it depends on whether we’re waiting for a widespread vaccine (which may be never), or elimination in Oz, or??? Whaddya reckon?

Praps the reward for the person who guesses closest could just be hugs from everyone else :).
