<p>Hi Helen,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I swim in the Thames near Reading.</p>
<p>I have never actually met up with any OSSRATS, but would be really keen to.</p>
<p>It would be fun, I would meet like minded folks and it would be good to share/hear stories/learn from experiences.<br>
</p>
<p>I intend to try out the Tri20 Lake, near Madjeski Stadium this morning.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Yesterday I went for a swim near Tilehurst (around appletree and poplar islands) and I received a:</p>
<p>Slightly aggressive "Wot you doing!" from someone in a boat.</p>
<p>Received criticism from a swarm of canoists for not having a bouy attached to me</p>
<p>Then on return my girlfriend tells me someone was saying I shouldn't be swimming in the Thames: weils disease etc</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I will try to have emails from this address forwarded to my other email account so I can respond more reliably.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Look forward to hearing form you<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Toby<br>

I’ve been out of the loop - is this email group still functioning? <br>
<br>
I’m in Reading and would love to get swimming again. Anything going on?<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
