Not the nicest of mornings for a swim, but doggy paddling was still an option from the back beach in Fountainstown.  “Lumpy and Currenty”, Bonnie commented.  A bit like a good bone, I suppose. If dogs comment, or can spell….

At least the salty dogs tried.  Some people went all the way to the beach then left for the pool…

Pool or sea, pool or sea? I like my comfort. Pool.

Still Southerly tomorrow so a careful splash in the waves is all that’s likely at 08.15.  Has to be done to keep up that ould habituation and acclimatisation stuff (see loneswimmer.com for what that means – I just copied it).
