Sunday 6th April – The end of daylight saving.

07/04/201916

The end of daylight saving and we make that inexorable march into Winter.

However, I much prefer

“People don’t notice whether it’s winter or summer when they’re happy.” — Anton Chekhov

This morning as usual, smiling faces everywhere.

 

One lot who were absolutely beaming were the Babewatch Crew.

Today Babewatch is holding their annual 6 hr charity swim.

They are fundraising for OneEighty, a Northern Beaches charity.

OneEighty’s vision is for a future free of youth suicide. For local communities to band together to provide support and opportunities to openly discuss mental health.

It is a great organisation and really deserves our support as well. You can see more at www.oneeighty.org.au/

Babewatch started with us at 7 am and will have a team of swimmers in the water until 1 pm.

 

Stats:

Swimmers: 620

Newbies: 22

Temperature: 21.6

    Thanks Shelley. The reason I am going away is that I’ve run out of ideas. Need to replenish.

    Wonderful stuff, Michael! With your impending sabbatical the Sunday blog team had better come up with something good. Thank goodness Rainer’s taking over.

    What a cracker Michael!! I’d think you’d need time to recover some more ideas as it’s too hard to live up to your standard. How do you keep producing these gems? It brings a smile to ones face and so happy to be apart of all this Vitamin Sea, healthy living, supportive community and hilarity. Well Done again. I hope the others can keep up this high standard that you have created. X
