This morning the waves were causing a little bit of havoc for our Bold and Beautiful swim.
Drinky told the 6.30 team to be honest about your ability and if you were in any doubt to swim from half way or Shelly.
The 6.30’s head out through the waves.
A bit of wave hopping.
The fearless early morning crew who often leave before the sun comes up and can be seen with their lights happily swimming in all conditions.
Midge, Jill and co are another group of early swimmers who came back through the waves.
The Women of the Wall aka WOW’s getting ready to go.
Although Bold and Beautiful swim every day of the year, safety is of the upmost importance. Ian tells the 7am team the group message, don’t swim outside of your ability – if you are unsure swim from either half way or Shelly.
Getting through the waves was a bit of fun.
Annie and other 7.30’s ready to make a swim for it.

Despite the waves, the water and air temperatures are slowly increasing, making it a lot more pleasant than the 14.1 we experienced a few weeks ago.

The next B&B monthly dinner for the year will be held on Tuesday 9th October at 6.30 pm at Bluewater Restaurant, and will feature a very different format than normal. Our guest on the night will be one of our swimmers, Karen Sander, who is the creator of the radio program Ageing Fearlessly.

The one thing that she will let you know is the guests fall into the following categories:
- A household name
- A mystery guest
- A Bold and Beautiful Immortal
