Happy Birthday Yvonne

and race placings from 28th to 38th

The week was a happy one with Yvonne celebrating her 93rd birthday. Thanks to Paddy for visiting Yvonne and having the celebratory photo taken with our smiling birthday lady.

 

It was a short morning at Serpentine SC today; short of numbers and short of breath, with all swimming a short distance. 

 

Many Serps swimmers had gone north to Lake Windermere for some cold-er water swimming. Low temperatures and a grey sky greeted Serps swimmers in Hyde Park, perhaps contributing to why the conversation was short outdoors.

Swimming races took place as normal, with Kevin Blick finishing in 28th place overall, Andy Deeley was 32nd overall - coincidentally the same number as last week - and I was 38th.

Our swim was followed by hot breakfast to warm the gills, with Mr and Mrs Fabik joining us for the social.  

Is there snow forecast for Wednesday?

Thanks to Robert Fisher for today’s photos.

 

Yours swimmingly
