Early evening ablution. Place is pretty deserted. I find a dead bee in the pocket of my swimming shorts
I stand with my toes wrapped around end of the diving board surveying the pond. I count one, two, three swimmers, no there's another, four. Someone swims beneath the jetty, that's five. I'm not contemplating anything, just taking it all in, goes beyond saying. One bad dive later and the lord of all he surveys is off his perch and is now nothing but a splash and few bubbles.
Wonderful stuff this swimming lark. I do two laps and and head/sped to Belsize Park.
