Sunday was the annual trip to Dunwich beach with the Jesus green outdoor swimming people.
As Geoff is home early from his walking trip we were able to go.
We left Cambridge as the sun was breaking through with the promise of a warm day and arrived in Dunwich in cloud and mist with the temperature barley above 12 deg.
We then joined 20 other people for a swim in the sea… passers by looked at us all in amazement.
As I am scared of this sea it was a great achievement for me to stay in and swim around for 20 min’s.
Then it was out and off for fish and chips to warm up.
The mad thing was we did a 160 mile round trip and did not go for a walk on Dunwich heath 🙁

jmb …… no the mad bit was going to the pub and not for a walk as planned 🙁
Utterly mad indeed. And driving 160 miles to do it is the clincher.
Lady banana… believe me when i say my life has not always been as exciting as it is now…. infact i pinch myself most days to make sure iam not dreaming it all 🙂
Crushed.. thanks for the comment.

Wow that is madness indeed. You swam for 20 mins in that same sea I struggle to dip my toe in in mid-August. Brrrrhhh!
