We were very disappointed not to have been able to play this year, but we had been invited to Holyrood for a garden party hosted by the Duke of Edinburgh to celebrate J's Gold DofE Award instead.

We'll be a definite maybe for next year. :)

In case folks have not seen my blog today - I'm trying to build up our OWS listings:

Before today, we had 48 swims listed for 2023 - we're now up to 154. The more the merrier.

Finally!! So good to hear this. :)
When I worked in Cardiff they seemed like a permanent fixture. Nobody imagined what would happen in the next half dozen years nor how long it would take to put right.
