    Receive the water. She sounds a good instructor and the girl was animated. Good on her. Lovely spot!

    Lovely. And no shrieking and squealing.... You're just getting quietly in there, with nature. Inspiring!

    So sorry to hear of Lynne's passing in summer 2016. We shared a flat together in Stirling and had such a hoot together with her and her dogs. Happy memories. Love Jean-Pierre XX

    I can remember swimming in the river on Dartmoor as a teenager , not sure if we actually swam much as we probably had too much beer at a local pub , but the river was a lovely coppery colour and a soft texture . Swimmers will understand .

    Awesome! In 7C water with no wet suit this is pretty impressive. May be I will try it one day. For me water and cold are two things that I keep appart but I love -10C and it would be risky to swim at those temperatures. I start getting cold when I ski at -25C and colder but in the water I don’t know. Another thing to learn. 😁😁😁!
