There was a nice swirl of water at the bottom of the ramp because of high tide this morning. The temp was 18 but it felt a bit cooler. Still a mix of swimmers with and without wetsuits, with or without flippers, etc.
Very enjoyable thing to do. Post swim faces
Alex has dropped the wetsuit as of today!

Monthly Dinner – 12th November 2019 – Guest Speaker
The Next B&B monthly dinner for the year will be held on Tuesday 12th Novemober at 6.30 pm at Bluewater Restaurant. Our guest on the night will be Allan Sparkes CV, OAM, VA FRSN, who is one of only 5 Australians in the past 44 years to be awarded the Cross of Valour (CV), Australia's highest bravery decoration. Allan will speak about "What is the rarely recognised element of courage and why is it so important today?" Is courage about overcoming fear? willingness to risk your all, an inner strength? perhaps it is about choice, leaving a place of safety to go to a place of danger? But how often do we consider courage is about the willingness to care. In his talk Al Sparkes will touch on the times he has had to be courageous to help others and the times he stopped caring about himself. And what he did to recover his life from the pits of hell.
Please book early for this event as it is sure to be popular. The cost of the dinner is great value at only $25 a head, which includes shared entrees, and a selection of mains to choose from (including a vegetarian option).

What I am reading – Michael Connelly's new book. I like his character Harry Bosch but this one has his new characters Bollard and Holler – still pretty good
