What's your super power? Smart enough to know swimming in winter is great? Mine is picking people to photograph who are super photogenic. I have other powers. Shane Gould has a super power that you did not know of - a great swimmer but she is now getting me to watch Australian Survivor at least a bit because she is on it!

Monthly Dinner – 10th July 2018 – Guest Speaker
The next B&B monthly dinner for the year will be held on Tuesday 10th July at 6.30 pm at Bluewater Restaurant. Our guest speaker on the night will be sailor and B&B swimmer, Matt Hayes, who represented Australia at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Matt and his crew of Rob Iles, Syd Seymour and Nicky Kukulka will talk about their upcoming two-year world circumnavigation aboard a Dufour class 56 feet yacht. Hear about the route they will sail, the pitfalls, dangers, highlights, yacht and personal preparations, oceans they will cross and the countries they will visit.
The cost of the dinner is great value at only $25 a head, which includes shared entrees, and a selection of mains to choose from (including a vegetarian option). Glasses of beer or wine and desserts are also available at the special price of only $5 each. Numbers are limited, so bookings are essential: To avoid disappointment and secure your spot please book HERE.
Winter Badges
The Winter swimming season is finally here!
Although the water temperature may be a little colder than you might like, there are several advantages of swimming in winter, including flat seas, good visibility and no bluebottles.
Perhaps the biggest advantage is that you can also qualify for a winter badge by swimming a minimum of 20 times between 1st June and 31st August.
You must also swim in at least 7 different weeks. If you manage to do all of your qualifying swims without a wetsuit (or other thermal enhancing equipment), you will also qualify for the coveted WWW badge (Winter without wetsuit).
So start now, and don’t forget to log your swims to qualify.
What I have been reading and "reading"
I am still keenly listening to the true crime odcast, Teachers Pet about the disappearance of Lynette Dawson from the Northern Beaches.
I am also reading Dear Amy which is going well so far.
