65 Bold & Beautiful swimmers started the week with this:
Ian was busy looking for his pal John Kelly. "He is about this tall" I heard him say
The new flag system works well in Manly. Please remember to swim between the Yogi's.
Emer was trying to distract Annie
In order to steal her wallet from her bag
LSA was still regaling people of her 10km triumph! Iain was too polite to tell her that he had done it too.
She decided that people just were not giving her the attention she deserved and decided to form her own B&B splinter group. This group leaves at 6.59am every morning from the surf club...
Jonathan was too busy pretending he was a motorcycle..BRUM! BRUM!
Poor Lauren has got the colour scheme all wrong
My best mate Bruce Baird was looking for someone who would listen about his new home in Rooty Hill. All the best with the new place, right next door to the RSL! Meat tray Sunday!!
Ian sang us a song on the way in.
Lesley was still not impressed
"I thought you said the water was warm!"
Ok then, lets just run all the way to Shelly
Tedley can almost walk on water. Or it's a sandbank.
"No unattractive pictures!" said Attracta
The boys were not impressed with the "Crotch-High" waves
But bromance got some of the others through the surf!
I did a 10km swim on Saturday you know...
But Lesley was still not impressed
Last one Attracta, I promise! ;)
If you lost a single red key at Bluewater Cafe, please come see me as the staff passed it on to Iain.
TOMORROW NIGHT at 6.30pm is the next Bluewater dinner and then every 1st Tuesday of the month. Great value at just $20 for two courses and $5 drinks. To register your attendance follow the link Bluewater Monthly Dinner
Now that the Summer badges have been decided, the spreadsheets have been updated with the total list of all the people who have completed both the 6 and 10km badges this season (43 for the
