Poolside Percy

Dolphin Leisure Centre Haywards Heath Last gasp 2011 swim. I was slightly disappointed when I arrived and realised that I'd been here before - oh well. I wonder why they reverted to the old name? No, I don't really give a dolphin's flipper why they changed the name although it seems more appropriate to call it Olympos in 2012. Hey ho. Anyway, I've not been swimming for ages so it was a laborious rather than languid mile that I managed. Shuffled out-of-town on the train to lovely Lewes to celebrate new years eve.

What a difference a day makes. Sunday afternoon shenanigans. What started out as an innocent swim turned in to a marathon. Fifty four lengths didn't seem enough so I powered myself on and on. Felt necessary to swim 100 lengths, that's 3KM, don't think I've ever swum so far. Well done me. Even had the middle lane to myself for 30 odd lengths. Cycled to DD's for roast dinner, The Persuaders and The Golden Compass

Saturday afternoon swim. Really laboured over this one, even got overtaken by Edith's Mum. Getting bored of writing about this pool. I still don't feel at home here. I've run out of photos as well.   Cycled back to DD(AST)'s for homemade pizza fiorentina and a game of parcheesi - I didn't win.
