Siyabona ( I see you)
This week has felt a bit like Otis Redding’s lovely song, warm mornings apre swim I could just hear these lyrics…
Sittin’ in the mornin’ sunI’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comesWatching the ships roll inThen I watch ’em roll away again, yeah
I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bayWatchin’ the tide roll away, oohI’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bayWastin’ time
Arguably it’s never a waste of time or at least it’s a fine waste of time.
The scene today. Flat blue and smooth with a hint of sea lice at a balmy 22.4C ( thanks Guy your daily read is fabulous)
Some of the WWWOWS (Welcoming Warm Women Of the Wall) with Bruce before the swim. From Left Carolyn, Nicci, Bruce, Emma and Hels
Always a helping hand at the swim. Lisa helps Penny. Cole Classic advertising behind FYI and to join the fun, get the cozzie.
Nicky and Sharon add glamour
Welcome Team Lou Henrietta and Anne … and a sly photobomb by Shaun
When you hear Afrikaans being spoken on the ramp it’s time to say howzit. Lovely couple Rihan and Kyla visiting from Somerset West in South Africa with friends PF and Aynslee who live in Manly. Lekker by die see ( nice at the beach)
