I have always loved moustaches so am excited that Movember is finally here. I will be seeking out good moustaches. But also it is move-ember so if you have had a sedentary few months, now is the time to move. of course the Italian word for swimming is ‘nuotare’ so it is also Nuovember
Here are 290 people (plus 5 newbies) who were enjoying their own version of Nuovember.
my view of Shelly where Janet said there were blue bottles
nice to see Janet and Sue
I thought i was having a chips craving in the morning instead of at night but it was just rubbish
Simon and Briana are new and had a great swim
Unfortunately a bit of blue bottles. They got Ian
What I have been reading
I read the new Strout book, Anything is Possible. Not only is it not as good as Oliver Kitteridge, it is not very good at all, I am afraid to say. Which really is a funny expression

Help country kids learn how to surf!
Each Wednesday in November and Thursdays in December we are looking for volunteers to help Royal Far West’s country kids learn how to surf. These children are from all over the state, for many of them it is their first time to Sydney and for most of them it will be the first time they have surfed! The age range is 9 years to 17 years. . The times are 4pm – 6pm once a week. If you can volunteer some afternoons in that time (it doesn’t have to be every week) please contact Anna Bowden on 89668597 or email annab@royalfarwest.org.au. A working with children check is required

Shame about the book. Olive Kitteridge was great.

Another lovely blog by Elizabeth.
Today at Shelly I found a beautiful blue sea shell (a type I had never seen before). Then I found a swimmer with a gadget jammed between her breasts (as they sometimes do). She kindly offered (or did I demand?) to take a photo of the shell. Then I found another swimmer who kindly offered to stuff the shell with the creature inside, down his budgie smugglers and swim back to South Steyne with it. I wonder if they made the journey back safely? I was hoping knowledgeable Elaine might be able to identify it (the shell, silly).
