19th August 09Well friends the weather is surely against us and I wish I had a pound for every person who has said that Saturday 15th was great weather and why didn't we do the swim? The sun did shine I grant you but the wind was our enemy and we made absolutely the right decision not to go.
However we did gather on the beach on August 15th and there were one or two souls there gazing hopefully out to sea thinking we must have drowned!
Let's swim to that rock!
Instead we frolicked and played in the sea and Jacqui and Harry got to practice in t
he Kayak. Nicky also had a go and she thought she was just coming for a party! Melissa and Ruby braved the sea which was actually quite warm. My sister Vicki, who is a nurse was in charge of hypothermia if we had done the big swim, was seen wandering vaguely about clutching a wrapped up thermal space blanket. My cousins and sisters and friends had fun and then we rocked the night away with a great party. Yonni did a great job singing for us and as usually we bopped till we dropped. We know how to cope with a bit of bad weather people....have a party anyway.

Go Nicky Go!
Please note the difference in attire!
So no news at the moment but it looks like there will be no chance until the end of the month. Meanwhile I keep up my training. 5000 meters in the pool yesterday morning and tomorrow morning, and rowing today.
