Tonight I’m gonna have myself a real good time. I feel alive
And the world I’ll turn it inside out, yeah
6am time to reflect. Times past, current times. The happiest of times, the saddest of times.
That’s why they call me Mister Fahrenheit. Guy is expecting big things tomorrow, he has been exceptionally good this year.
Sarah says we don’t do Santa, so I can be as good or bad as I like. Stickman dodges the question. Roger lurks in the background like a naughty elf.
Geoff and his mates head off to Shelley at 6am. Geoff thinks he’s been good
Some of the express gang head north for a lazy 6k.
I’m a shooting star leaping through the sky. Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
Merry Christmas from the Machine Men. Don’t Stop me now. I’m having a good time
I am a satellite I’m out of control. I am a sex machine ready to reload
Chippo is not expecting any Christmas presents this year
Good enough to share. Three mates on a wave at the Bower
Rusty Caroline & Chippo’s Pitch report
Pristine. Flat. As we head in early. Paul and the express lads heading north, predicting a strong headwind coming back from Freshie. Amazing today. Warm as wool, Geoff and his 6am gang in wetsuits, more lice protection than warmth. If Will was here, he would have his booties and orange hat on. Lice were patchy, more in than out of the bay. The bower rocks were superb today, washing oxygenated water over us. No jetski rescues needed today Drinksy!
Matt wanted to keep the hat. Had to chase him down to get it back
Heroically gave up their spot in the shower line for this magnificent photo
The gifting of matching Christmas caps. Rumours of Isobel becoming a blogger with all her effort today!
Photographer becomes the photographed
Mermaids and Mermen cheers to Christmas with a sneaky champers
Duncan the suave Christmas elf – the brim hat & scarf stays he says
Merry Christmas from Matt & Fiona.
Yeah, I’m a rocket ship on my way to Mars. Audie loves the Christmas hat bucket. What a first Christmas for Audie!
Merry Christmas to everyone, thanks for the swim. Stay safe and be good for one more night before Santa comes.
