A lot of swimmers were swimming slowly to aid their Christmas Day handicap. Sadly Andy Deeley felt the pressure to impress the crowd and easily won his heat.
A pleasing 'I told you so' was delivered to Saundra who clearly wore two hats, and was happy to show people this before the race, and then missed her mark as she couldn't hear the Hanicapper through both thick hats; hahahaha!!
Andrew and Sally Kelly brought along two mates to swim, one of whom only got up to the navel wet! The water was 39oF.
