Yes. Excellent swim yesterday.
Now just slightly concerned that Colin's channel attempt will
lead to land-fall at the Statue of Liberty, NYC! ;-)

PS I am up for joining people to make their catch-up swims
quorate. Weekday evenings best for me.

Colin,
I reckon you were just confused. The Radcot section is one of the
clearly eastward more predominantly eastward sections of the
Thames. If you swam the same direction along the river as most of
us you were certainly eastbound!
I agree it was another good swim, and for once in good weather
for a change.
Regards
Neil Richardson

Hi all
Can anyone explain why I thought I was swimming in the wrong
direction throughout the swim yesterday, east to west rather than
west to east.
Are there ancient lay lines around Radcot that cause a temporary
inversion in the Earth’s Magnetic Field or was I just confused.
Your help will be gratefully accepted.
I am missing swim six Buscot to Grafton so if anyone is up for a
catch please let me know ( I need a friend to point me in the
right direction).
Colin

Hi Gang,
Another great swim today! I seem to have got a bit burned
despite the sunscreen! GPS track below. It’s a bit off course
to start with – probably because I forgot to turn it on until
just before we got in and it didn’t have a good lock.
