53 swimmers,
As the blog title says, Its getting better but there are still some curly ones rolling in. According to Miss Goodwin “The RIP is Massive”
Visibility is good, but not so good that anyone could see Nick TB – Maybe because he didn’t turn up with his thermometer (Tut Tut ) That means there was no-one to take the temperature this morning so lets say it was…quite nice and almost warm. Dr Nick – see you tomorrow, Ill even make an appearance myself.
The word in the water was “ cake” A few swimmers were going to Manly wine to have a sugar and caffine breakfast (cake and coffee) in celebration and anticipation of the imminent Dardanelles trip. ( they leave today) Good luck Dardanellians. May the force and the tides be with you.
(Long time swimmers, firt time badge owners) Anita keelan did her 20th swim today, we know this because she wrote it on the tick sheet! Deb Hanson also got her 20th swim in today. It’s a proud and satisfying moment when you know you can stay in bed for the rest of winter if you want to because the badge is already in the bag.
It’s supposed to be a ripper of a day today (22 degrees in Man town). For all you lucky people that don’t work or do work by the beach – enjoy. For everyone else that works in an office or somewhere just as exciting – take a look out the window and smile. You'll be back in the ocean tomorrow at 7am and summer is on its way. I promise.
Fact of the day: Kangaroos are great swimmers - better than Boy Michel apparently!
Don’t believe me? See for yourself:
