Thanks for visiting!  After managing to finish the Great North Swim in 59 minutes, 18 seconds, (1 mile swim in Windermere), I have now signed up for the Great Scottish Swim, 2Km (1 1/4 miles) on Saturday 24th September.  No doubt this will be colder on the day, but I hope to finish in less than 1 1/4 hours. 

I am raising Money via justgiving for Diabetes UK. More information about their work can be found at: www.diabetes.org.uk.

If you prefer to send me a cheque, I am raising Money for a Local Charity who provide "second Skin" pressure garments for people with various conditions, such as spina bifida, MS, cerebral palsy.  The local branch of the charity is run by Catriona Duncan.  They are not on Just giving as it costs a fair amount of money for the charity to be listed.

Many thanks for all your donations,  I hope all this swimming is doing good for someone, as it doesn't eel like its dpoing me any good at all :)
