The mainland media have been busy recently, and in France it was Lorraine and Norm Jones, honorary King and Queen of Lake Annecy who were under the glare of Le Dauphine newspaper.
And the enetente cordial is best described in Norm and Lorraine's words: "The name of our great club and it's members goes before us. After finishing a swim at the plage in Duingt. Norm was approached by a gentleman named Gonzargue. We had met some years before when some of our members stayed at the same hotel and he has followed the Serps news ever since. He promptly introduced Norm to Marilys Jean, President of Duingt Winter swim club. She asked Norman to be Honorary President of the club which has five members. Norm's inaugural swim with the club was followed by a brunch with many homemade French delicacies at Marilys home looking out on lac d'Annecy. As can be seen in photograph below this momentous occasion which was duly recorded in the Haute Savoie newspaper. "
