It really is like the Summer at this stage with the number of scheduled swims.  We had 08.15 Saturday and Sunday and then 11.30 on Sunday as well.  Around those times there were several other small groups.   January is being kind!

Flying visit from Jamie before moving to Limerick – still waiting for the sun on Saturday morning.

Recharging the fuel levels after the 11.30 Sunday morning swim. That Ninja on the left looks fierce familiar.

There have been a few journalists writing lately about the explosion in numbers of OW swimmers in the UK and Ireland.  All of them comment on the stress-relieving aspect of it.  Ms. Maguire takes that a bit further.  She gets the stress-busting benefit of the swim and then doubles it by strangling someone to take out any remaining frustrations.  No wonder she’s always beaming for the photos – de-stressed, de-toxed and very, very deadly.  Posing for swimfies is dangerous when she’s around.

This is great crack – strangling Gordon first thing in the morning.
