Quite muggy this morning, a change from yesterday's sunshine - it seems the weather person is getting it right.
Shaun and Veena - Veena said there was so much seaweed in the shallows that she struggled to get her flippers off. Note to self, there seems to be less weed at the flags. Speaking of which, it's good to see that the flags are up again. Just an aged clubby perspective - the presence of the flags is minimising the risk of swimmer-boardrider collisions and ensuing injury.

Here's the lovely Cath and lovely daughter Ruby about to brave the blueys - hope they didn't get you!

What am I reading?
Cath lent me Permanent Record by Edward Snowden back in July. Well written and thought provoking. I have a very satisfying backlog of books for when I've finished this one. I'm about to get back into it now, with the cricket in the background.
Here's something a bit different to listen to
