'December Dip' at Parliament Hill Lido with my lovely and brave friends Adelaide and Avril!

December Dip


Chatting about the swim with Edith Bowman from Radio One!


My wonderful friends Adelaide and Avril who came to support me!
(I'm the short fat one in the middle)


............ we swam in 7 degree water to a brass band playing 'The Great Escape'
What a cool (or just cold) bunch
