So daylight savings is coming to an end soon and it couldn’t come any sooner.  It’s been really dark for the 6:30 swimmers as they make their way in the water. They don’t know what little suprises they will be in for when they hit that water.  We always rely on them to give us...

They say a picture is worth a thousand words – today I’m handing it over to you lovely people who swam (or didn’t) to provide the captions.. Each pic is numbered for easy reference – go nuts in the comments section! … be nice! 1.   2.   3.   4.   5.   6....

After a week of choppy and unclear water it was flat, warm, smooth with amazing visibility again today. Krystina described it as a ‘fish extravaganza!’ You have to swim with us now before it gets cold. It’s simply stunning! The sunrises are to die for too!  The Drinks Express head out under dramatic skies again…...

It was dark enough to perhaps put you off coming down!  The moon was still up!  But the sun soon peeped around the corner! Just in time for us to go in…and the water was LOVELY and flat …temp was above 20! A little bit cool going in… The sun was superb sitting just above...

We are told that being human we have the unique privilege of being able to make a choice from the options that life presents to us.  In the early morning, making these choices presents us with that other unique human attribute – dilemma!! The sun rise is always beautiful, and each one different.  Even today’s...

It is hypothesised by physicists that the whole universe exists only as wave functions of infinite possibility, and it is through the interaction with you, the observer, that these wave functions collapse into the substantial particles of reality that we think we are experiencing. Your thoughts, your passions, your fears and aspirations affect the reality...

So, I don’t get to swim all that often during the week and love reading about glorious warm water and seeing photos of lovely calm water and I turn up today to bumpy and fun! What a busy morning down at the beach. The Smile for Drake crew were out. According to Father Gerhart it’s...

Good Morning from Drinky’s Express.   I thought that I would get in the water early today and see things from a different perspective.  I managed to get a few quick pics in before the swim.  It is dark out when you start at 6:30 at the moment, but it is a great swim, swimming...

Good morning everyone and happy Friday again! It’s a little hazy again this morning (some more than others…) and the water is a little churny – yep that’s a word I just made up. The humid days are sticking with us and the swell has changed around to ENE and about 2.5 feet – it’s...

As I lay in bed listening to the rain and thunder at 2am this morning,  I thought… maybe, this will be the morning there won’t be many there, it will be called off, it won’t be magical… But… it did stay dry at Manly, it was brighter than expected, the ocean was calm and inviting…...
