A happy day for those celebrating Mother’s Day today. And joining in with the festive maternal cheer at Serps recently were two swimming Mums who had a dip with their nearest and dearest recently. Annie Johnson swam with Ange Johnson and also managed to split her time evenly on a visit from Australia with all her offspring. She also watched Ange and Ange’s sister complete the Paris marathon. On a side note, surely the Eiffel Tower must be the greatest modern day homage to the triangle since the pyramids?
Back to Annie, who had spent the summer as the only doctor on the Mawson base in Antarctica And thanks to Ange's thoughtfulness, Annie is now the proud owner of a Serps tea mug (hot tea naturally).
And Jean-Luc Currie was joined by his Mum at the Serpentine for a recent splash.
So, for Mumsies everywhere, happy Mother’s Day from all Serpentine swimmers.
