A little out of area for Oxon but for those who don't track Facebook this Saturday's swim might be of interest. A few of us from ossoxon went on the last full moon swim on the Nene and it was a great success, thanks to Tom Reed who is initiated it. I'm in the North Cotswolds (outside Chipping Norton) if anyone needs a lift.

We have permission to camp on the riverbank,just past Fotheringhay Castle,( fee to be confirmed), and will no doubt picnic and splash about into the night.
Another swim will be available in the morning for those who wish to do so.
