Sorry guys, can't do today and we have the brick in the morning. The weather forecast shows that Wed morning is looking better than any other day. I'll keep and eye on the weather, but I'm going to head down Wed morn unless a storm is blowing, if anyone's around. Will probably do one the following week as well.

Serious case of 'Brain Freeze' this morning
. Thanks Frank for the company, I have to say I probably would have stopped and got out only you were there. It took me 5-6 attempts to get the head into the water before I eventually acclimatised. Need our heads examined....
