Sea swimming hasn't been as prolific of late due to conditions (heavy rain and for the last twice ) but i've dipped quite alot. It occured to me today that my frozen shoulder issue has resolved itself . I don't know if its the power of the cold north sea thats helped or just time itself but i'll take it.
