Dear Thames swimmers all

 

Subject to weather, there will be a catch up of Swim 24 on Sunday 10th June.  Tracy and I missed this the first time and are hoping that the predicted rain all week will make the swim as exciting as it was the first time a few weeks ago.

 

Please let me know by email without fail

1)      If you are hoping to come (with a mobile phone number)
And

2)      If you want lunch

 

My phone number on the day is 07845 227573.   If the weather is dire, we may cancel.   Please check emails until Saturday.

 

The arrangements will be exactly as Swim 24 and are repeated below. 

 

Pam

 

We may have to be vigilant. The river is fast-flowing and we will have to be sensible about safety.
We'll meet here in the free car park at Culham at 10:30am on Saturday 19th May 2012:

Get changed, and shuttle up to the car park at Abingdon Bridge, where we met for the last swim: (Will need money for parking in this one - £1.20 for 3 hours but we can share the cost)

From here it is a relatively short walk (0.75km) to Abingdon Lock across the fields, where we'll start our swim from:

We can have a breather around half way, just past the Marina entrance on the opposite bank, where there appears to be a beach of sorts:

George & Dragon for a spot of lunch: (Tel:  01235 848142 ý )
