[OSS Oxon] Oxford swim September 16 and 18

[Pam Jones]

Dear All

 

I still plan to swim on Friday 16th September in the evening in the Thames
at Port Meadow and on Sunday 18th September in the afternoon in the Cherwell
from the Victoria Arms at Marston Ferry Road down to Parsons Pleasure.  

 

>From the map, it seems that the latter swim is 2.5 to 3 kilometres but I am
awaiting an answer about that.

 

Friday  At the moment, my plan is to meet at the car park near Port Meadow
at   about 6:30pm (negotiable), walk across to the river and swim upstream
until we get bored.   Possibility of visit to pub with pies afterwards.

Sunday  I am supposed to be having lunch in College but could be persuaded
out of that.   However, I am tied up until at least 12:30pm and then i have
to fetch my car from park and ride.  I then plan to leave my car near
Linacre College and cycle up to the Vicky Arms.   My car can be used to
ferry us back to the pub after the swim so long as there are no more than
five of us.

Perhaps we could have a cup of tea or something stronger at the Vicky Arms
at the end.
