I think it's because Fetch has set up the forum to recognise any link beginning www. Youtube..... to default to a video link.
Not sure how you link to a channel on youtube.

We link to individual clips on YouTube all the time all over Fetchland though yes?

Yes, but I thought the channel link would be more useful, so that peeps can find the individual bits they want rather than: "here is a video about the catch" for example.

Oh
Swim sessions are back to 1hr!
Shame they start at 7 and I start work at 8 so can’t use the hour!
Will have to look at a way to do weekend swims whilst still doing long bike run at weekend!
When it’s warmer and lighter I can extend my run bike commutes but not just now

So, I did a stroke count towards the end of tonight's swim.
24/25m. I.e. a lot.
Planned to do a few more things, but it was just ridiculously busy in the pool. They really shouldn't allow more than 4/lane as it gets silly. Particularly when some people insist on swimming a "steady" breaststoke. Mind you half the other "medium" lane was full of heads-up breaststrokers, because they either don't like the "slow" lane or because the "slow" lane was full of chatters (this was a lane swim session).
I got told that if I wanted to swim without running into the back of people continuously I should go in the fast lane (which would have been completely ridiculous as they were swimming a good 10-15s/length faster than me and I'd then be causing the same issue as the slower swimmers in the lane I was in). All I was trying to do was swim at a sensible speed without crashing into people!
In the end, it's the pools fault - they need a better way of controlling numbers and/or lane discipline.

Well, when I swam regularly, that would have been me. Tough. Mind you, I'd get frustrated at some people doing the crawl much slower than my breaststroke, and who often wouldn't yield at the turn, presumably as they considered themselves "better".

How was your swim today?
