Kimbles Oct 2014 8:53am, 10 Oct 2014 4,617 posts	0 Kimbles Okay the snot monster is still hanging about (air con at work is not helping). However I am supposed to be OW swimming tomorrow as have been asked to take par in an OW video (make an orderly line for autographs please lol). Although there will be a lot of land based talking, I'm just hoping I can get some mileage in to add to the challenge

Red Squirrel Oct 2014 6:08pm, 12 Oct 2014 17,110 posts	0 Red Squirrel This is the longest stretch I've had of no swimming. 2 long colds Leg strapped up for a week by the physio Now setting up a new business with no spare cash to pay for swimming. We'll see what happens when the dog's back with the owner. I might be working somewhere with a pool close at hand.
