Temperature of the water was 19.7 degrees.
Not as many swimmers as on Australia Day but still there was no hook free.
Today there were some sets. Not that low and gentle.
Pretty quick swim to Shelly, not much pause before the Let’s go and then back
After all the rain it makes me think of stuff washing into the sea.
Let’s keep it clean
It was easy to sleep in an Ian did. Lucky he caught up with Jeremy and Bryan and the other doublers
Swimmer of the day today is Dorset
PaulEvery is still training for his 30+km swim in Japan in August.
Biggest mover is Paul Crooks
Well done
In my mind I am swimming like mr smooth on the elbow front.

Thanks for coming to the blog rescue again Elizabeth. You are amazing! Water felt a bit chilly today after the 27 we got used to in Bali! A note from Anne Edwards regarding Monday…
Manly Surf Club is running the Soft Sand Classic on Monday. We have arranged to congregate ‘up the beach’ before we swim to stay out if the way of their registration. Please put on blog.
