Friday 26 October: in which the girls notch up some Secret Laps





Joan, Emma and Hildi plus Paul C met on a dark beach and noted a drop in air temperature. Although Pete has decreed the winter laps challenge to be a Wednesday activity, the tide and conditions were perfect to notch up a few more. Joan agreeing to verify.  I think Paul had been bribed by Pete to prevent any ladies taking an early lead, however, and he did a good job of trying to persuade us it was too chilly and we should simply enjoy the view and eat cake.

But once in it was extremely nice. Joan took a reading of 11.5 degrees and it was just the air temperature if 8 which made us cold.  Joan 4 laps, Emma 5 and a half, Hildi 8. In 7:17, out 7:48.  Winter yodas out in force.

Swimmers: Joan, Emma, Paul c, Hildi 
Over sleepers: Alex
Water temp: 11.5
Air temp: 8
Cake: lime and coconut
