I'd say the place marked on your map is about spot on, and yes, we were going
for about 40 mins by the time we reached that place. Subject to how
strong the flow of the river is (probably not very) then aiming for the
same get out point is most likely perfect length and duration for
Wednesday, given the proposed starting time.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I think it *is* about 40 mins to the getting out point that
I marked on the map - is that right, Lindsay? There are also a few options before
that, though probly weedier and muddier. All of them exit right onto the Thames
path. <o:p></o:p></p>

tonight to see how dark it was at 7.30. I don't mean to sound like a
scaredy-cat but I don't think I'm ready for swimming in the dark! Is
there a stopping place where we could get out after say 45 mins? I
may be able to be there a bit earlier, somewhere between 6.30 and 6.45.
If we were in the water at 6.45 we could certainly have 45 mins of swimming in
the light. Let me know what you think. I too will be wearing
my wetsuit.</span><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";
