  1. I went swimming this lunchtime at a local pool for the first time in 20+ years 😳 Had I forgotten how to swim? No. Could I manage one single length? Not a chance! 😅😊 #swimmingbaths #swimming #exercise #middleagedwoes

  2. Another work errand took me in the direction of the ocean.

    Air temps: 17C

    Water temps: 18C

    A sea this calm with little wind is rare here. Swam, walked, swam again. The world is falling apart so shag it, I'm taking ocean time. I can work tonight. Rain in the forecast tomorrow.

  3. Might’ve probably had my final season’s pond swim today. Really, “invigorating” and “refreshing” do not convey the sensation of chill, on entering the water, whilst swimming, and then lingering with me, even once dressed & walking home. Most of the ducks & coots seem to have relocated — migrated? — so I’m not alone in eschewing the ponds, for now. #swimming #ponds #hampsteadheath #hampsteadponds

  17. "September swim" - First dip this month. Fresh but not cold. Epic waves. Good fun. Looking forward to the dawn mornings later in the year. Going to be ace. Do wish I had a decent waterproof case for my camera. Currently using luck. They’re so expensive, but you get fascinating photos. These are iPhone in a simple pouch.

    Air temp: 13c

  19. Are you an angler, canoeist, hiker, or wild swimmer? Do you regularly visit one or more UK rivers?

    Could you spend 15 minutes monitoring your river in the next week?

    Data gathered during Big River Watch can support policy change; helping turn the tide on plastics or stem the flow of untreated sewage.

    The case of the Bellingen's scenic swimming hole
    Bellingen just smashed in a "$5.2M “gate way to the Promised Land” so that mass tourism can speed along the new 'highway' (Gleniffer Road) to the Never Never Creek. It is the town's main 'tourist destination' (but has no public toilet).

    In January the Promised Land swimming hole near Bellingen recorded faecal contamination of water. "Council advised swimmers to stay out of the Never Never River.” Humans and dogs were blamed for the faecal matter. "It has been very popular over the holiday period and there are certainly indications that people have been using the riparian area there along the banks for toileting purposes”
