No Steve - that was the long way round - it took you twice the time that it took me and then I went back for Brett and swam back and we still beat you.  You were fighting against a much stronger current further out at sea...
Anyway - just glad you did eventually stop and look round otherwise you would still be swimming yet..Ha Ha
However, I think we got more of the waves as I was feeling queezy most of the evening afterwards...

HI Brett
Hope you got home safely and also not too hypothermic...You did well tonight to last as long without a wetsuit although the sea was fairly warm.. Being young makes you tough!!!! Unlike the two wrinklies you were swimming with.  Sorry Steve!!! 
We just need to give Steve a Garmin so that he can find a better route to take than millions of miles out to sea. 
I won't be able to make a swim next monday, so next swim will be at splash n dash.  Hope the sea and weather is favourable for us all..

Hi swim training is at yaverland tonight by mutual consent, as the nights are fairly drawing in!!!!!

Meet at 6.45 at Yaverland Car Park for swim at 7pm.

Helen, myself and Bill confirmed so far, but possibly Steve, Clair and maybe Brett..
