Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

MUCH better second attempt. Lough Rea. The water was very pleasant unlike the sea. It was cold at first but once I started moving around in it and warming up, it was beautiful. I was afraid the whole thing would just be about endurance but I loved it. I jumped in a few times too. It was much easier to handle than the sea. In the ocean, I couldn’t even get moving to warm up as the waves were too strong. The lake was also just that little bit warmer.
Thanks for all the tips! I feel like I accomplished something here.

Fair play, that sort of swimming always feels like you’ve done something good.Well done and sending you virtual hugs and prayers, you can be very proud of your achievement.����
Thanks! Now I did discover how very weak my bones are and how depleted my muscles are. I was doing the front crawl and getting nowhere. Absolutely nowhere. In a calm lake. I also hurt my knee just from jumping in. Totally worth it but it made me realise how easily I could into difficulties in choppier lakes or the sea.
I would recommend this to anyone who is feeling hemmed in and stuck in a rut due to the lockdown. It was invigorating. There’s still time left this year!
I also realised that I really don’t like sand and not having to deal with it was very nice indeed. :P AND I got to witness the sight of a lad smoking a cigarette whilst stomach deep in water.
