Summertime and the living is easy
Tra la la - come and join us for a lovely swim in the Thames
from the beautiful rural Shifford Lock to the metropolis that is
Newbridge and the Rose Revived. A mere 4.5km if you swim, like
some of us, in a bit of a zig zag fashion - only 4.25km if you
swim as straight as a die.
We'll meet at 10:30am at the Rose Revived car park on Sunday
27th July 2014 here:

(Look for the green arrow. (On the map - there won't actually be
one in the car park :o) ))
and we'll either walk or shuffle up to Shifford Lock, flop into
the water and float, bob, or swim a bit seriously down to the
Rose Revived. Under the grade 2 listed new bridge - 14th century
and new 'cos it was built after Radcot - at the confluence of
the Windrush and exit elegantly on the left on to the terrace of
the Rose Revived to the applause of the drinkers.
For those that want to shuffle a car we have an exciting
alternative to the Chimney Meadows car park . . . .

and cross the original Thames at Duxford ford (A bit of a
tautology) and amble to Shifford lock. We can decide on the day.
