<P class=MsoNormal>What a heavenly swim with Pauline and Chloe. It rained
a bit; we wore wetsuits and I felt guilty but, since we were in the water for
three and a half hours, I think that it was sensible. We stopped at the
footbridge for flapjacks and coffee and then swam on the last half mile to the
car park. Lunch at the Riverside pub just along the river in the blazing
sunshine. <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Two major interactions with swans. Where is Adam when
you need him? Swanning off? Ducking out? I got
chased by a herd of cows who appeared Zulu style over the brow of the river bank
as I slithered inelegantly back in. One house to lust after with a
Private sign that just made me get out to look.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>See you all soon<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Ps No swans were hurt in the practical research for this
article (but i got nettled)<o:p></o:p></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
