Christmas 2008


Christmas morning on Felixstowe beach saw many people about to plunge in for St Elizabeth Hospice. Water temp 4oC with a brisk easterly wind. Several Bennetts arrived to watch and we met Rob Allan who inspired us to join the group. This unfortunately meant that Joe wasn't with us but the adrenaline surge took over and within a few minutes Seamus, Miriam, William and Sean stripped off and plunged in for the briefest 'swim' of the year. We thought a second dip would be more pleasant but was no different! Very exhilarating and finished off with some 'vin chaud'. Next time Joe and after the November training, sorry.
