Yes please, although the baby may not come to the midnight one! Thanks Tracy

Hello,

A couple of us are pencilling in Tuesday 14 Sept evening for a swim

I was thinking somewhere 'around' here

http://www.multimap.com/s/itD2Qmkb

However I am more than open to other suggestions. As the sun is setting earlier and earlier, we probably need to get in the water around 18:45 ish - sun set is 19:25. There seem to be a few pubs nearby and I can have a scope about to see what is there - unless anyone knows the area.

Also, I'd been mulling about doing a 'proper' night swim - midnight or later (!) kind of time - but without a moon, maybe a new-moon swim. I know this won't be everyone's cup of tea, but for this I was thinking about the same place we did the silent swim.

Nice and wide and plenty of places to get out plus it is easy to walk along the bank, but walk to where the 'short' swim was and swim downstream to the islands.

While I know that people have to get up in the morning, some of us were looking at either Friday Oct 1 or Friday 8th to give us all a lie in on Saturday.

Again it's all fluid, so any suggestions welcome. We can then firm up the dates and times as they get nearer.

Hello,

Sorry for the short notice but I won't be able to do Tuesday now.

I am not able to get back in time before sunset. The sun sets at around 19:30 and it is pretty dark by 20:00.

So to all those that did show an interest, my apologies. This week is busy for me but I am happy to do Sunday morning if people wish - let me know directly (than email the group) and if you have any preference of location.

The water is getting cooler but not so much that you couldn't do a swim 'sans-suit' for about 30 minutes (maybe more if you swam hard), just the hands and feet for some I guess.
