A really foul, cold and snowy morning for the hardy Serpies this morming. The water was far warmer than the bitter wind and snow.
Some good racing happened, but the chatting, tea drinking and celebrations were more important.
We celebrated Gordon Brodie's 80th Birthday, which was a real honour for all of us. Gordon is our long serving Club Captain.
Rose George brought down a medal she was presented in 1961 by the Dover Mayor, to recognise her achievement of being the first English lady to swim the Channel from England to France. AMAZING. RESPECT Rose! Look at the photos of the medal below.
Thanks to Mike Harris for the photos.
