Thursday 23 April ‘iSOULate’ this weekend.

BOLD & BEAUTIFUL IS NOT CURRENTLY RUNNING DUE TO THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIAL DISTANCING AND STAYING INSIDE AS MUCH AS IS POSSIBLE DUE TO CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19).

Hey groovers! I’ve estimated we are around week 4 of staying at home in isolation and whilst the days have been glorious and offered swimming perfection, as the sun sets, things can get a little, well…boring. So I am dedicating this blog to putting the ‘soul’ back into isolation.

This weekend you can be social dis-dancing with your family and neighbours and I have made a play list for you guys to get down in lockdown. Without further adieu, shake up your favourite quarantini ( that’s just a normal martini but you drink it by yourself ) sanitise, sterilise and synthesize!

Something to watch:

A Kiwi film-maker and outdoor swimmer based in London, Patrick McLennan, thought B&B swimmers might be interested in watching his film, The Ponds, about the all year-round swimmers of Hampstead Heath, London.   We are sure it will resonate with many of our swimmers and is a nice feel good story of healthy, well-being and passion for the cold water buzz, a nice light relief movie to enjoy at this time…
