Parliament Hill Lido


Water temp: 19 degrees

Wednesday after work swim. Arrived at 5:20, plenty of time to fart about and have a decent swim.

Overcast, blue patch of sky looked promising, swam a few lengths. Sun came out for while, Lido looked beautiful. Humongous black cloud threatened a downpour. Enough weather, I was really determined to get past 30 lengths, never swam more than 30 lengths at The Lido.

At length 29 I was stopped by Ruth Corney, she wanted to take my photo under the amazing black cloud, I happily obliged. Swam length 30 and got out, another time.

Got soaked on the way home.
