Christmas Day Swim 2010

Sorry to take so long to get this written - the weather's been fine so we've been working outside a lot of the time and sleeping most of the rest.

Saturday 25 December 2010

We started the day off with a swim - in Nidri harbour (which is much cleaner in the winter than you might suppose).  It was meant to be fancy dress, but we didn't make much of an effort, which was a pity, as most other people did.

 Dave bravely strips to shorts, but I'm not quite ready to take my jeans off yet ...
With Vince, who eventually went in fully clothed.











The line up: 25 people in varying qualities of fancy dress.  I'd brought bubble wrap for the boys to dress them as parcels, but they shared with Josh and then there wasn't much to go round.  George 2nd left; Richie 2nd right.

 Ready for our plunge.  Josh (red-head, front of camera) joined our group.

Oops, here goes
