[OSS Oxon] FW: Oxford swims September & October - DATES PLEASE

Wed Sep 14 20:59:35 BST 2011

Hi Claire, & anyone else interested...

Yes, we should get them on Facebook. Til that time, I have created a page on
the 'Blog which contains all the swims we have done - as on the OSS website,
but with some notes on where we stopped etc, with dates for future swims
too. Yes, I did have quite a lot of work to do today.  (you may also see our
synchro display up too).

dates are:

September and October dates for your diary:

 #14            Sat24Sep11            Pinkhill to Cassington Cut
3.3km
 #15            Sun09Oct11           Cassington Cut to Kings Lock
3.4km
 #16            Sun23Oct11           Kings Lock to Danger Bridge
3.7km

I'm hoping to join Peter McMunn for his grand catch-up last leg from
Ferryman to Pinkhill on Friday, but might be during school hours if you're
interested.
