Mapledurham swim was excellent, Victoria, Helen arranged some

I could do Monday or Wednesday evening next week (13th or 15th
September), but given that you are free earlier on Monday, could I
suggest 6:30pm on Monday from the French Horn at Sonning Eye ?
From the other posting by Pam, it looks like she may be available
Monday as well ? Anyone else up for this ?
<br>
<br>
I'm also available from about 5:30pm Saturday or Sunday this
weekend if you or anyone else is interested in meeting up -
perhaps to do the next stretch along at Mapledurham.
<br>
<br>
I don't think I'll be able to do next weekend (18th / 19th) and
having said in a OSS RATS post that I can do all evenings next
week except Tuesday, I now realise I can't actually do Thursday or
Friday, so in fact only Monday or Wednesday... (!)

I hope the Mapledurham swim went well. It's a lovely stretch.
I haven't been as far as the lock so I'm looking forward to
hearing about it.
<br>
<br>
Anyone have a preference for a swim next week from Sonning?
Helen and I can do Monday or Wednesday evening - I'm free on
Monday from around 6.30 and on Wednesday around 7.00 - or if
anyone's free the following weekend Saturday 18th in the
afternoon looks ok, as does Sunday 19th morning. It would be
great to have a swim as my wetsuit is desperate to have its
first dip, and all I've had at home is peals of hysterical
laughter when I've tried it on on dry land.
<br>
<br>
Hope to see you soon.

Sounds good to me!

See you probably somewhere around the junction of Wintringham
Way and Colyton Way, or where ever near there that we can find
space to park.

Yes - option 3 walk and then swim gets my vote as well. (We
can always get out a bit early if we feel like it and the
remaining walk will be shorter.)
<br>
<br>
I'll see you at Mapledurham lock end (but on Purley housing
estate side) at 5:45pm if we're all agreed on option 3.

Thanks for the outlines, Lindsay. I vote for option 3, and
agree that we should strike version 2 from consideration.
Jeremy, any preference?

Hello all,
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Been out to a Round Table event this evening (riding a 4 man
bicycle, would you believe !) so away from e-mail...
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Various options...
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Could park at Pangbourne rec, off Thames Avenue (for
Pangbourne meadows) start swim there, go with current, get out
and walk back.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
or
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Could faff about getting cars to both ends (in the assumption
we will make it as far as Mapledurham lock - which given the
dwindling daylight these evening, I doubt, also as mentioned
by Victoria it is probably on the optimistic side of things to
expect we'll manage the whole stretch for reasons of distance
and coldness.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
or
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
We park at Mapledurham lock end (but on Purley housing estate
side), then walk along as far as Thames beach and swim back to
the lock.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm easy with any of these options, but I do share Victoria's
doubts over whether option 2 is practical. 1 and 3 are
equally good for me. Helen what would you prefer - walk and
then swim or swim and then walk ?
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking forward to this for tomorrow either way, and another
go at the Sonning to Shiplake stretch next week would be great
too.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Helen, I share your hopes that we may get a bit of an 'Indian
Summer' (fingers crossed !)
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
All best wishes

Ah, good point. Lindsay is the one who knows this stretch.
Where are we meeting, Lindsay?
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm starting to wonder if the OSSrats email list was such a
good idea, as we're now potentially discussing swims in three
places - Oxon and RATS email groups, plus the OSS facebook
pages! I thought that all the Berkshire activity might get
wearisome for people in north Oxon, though... perhaps it will
get more straightforward once all the interested parties join
OSSRATS.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers, and see you tomorrow I hope, Jeremy and Lindsay.
