Highgate Men's Pond

Water temp: 16 degrees
Bell's palsy: week 4


Saturday morning. I've just taken part in another Parkrun, SB got another PB. No GB and Action Danless today, so I'm taking a lazy, lonesome stroll down the avenue of lime trees. It was sunny a minute ago but a big grey cloud just pulled up and it doesn't look like it's going anywhere.

I pass the East German Loud Ladies Swimming Team walking in the opposite direction, they're all done at the ponds then, joy.

The changing rooms are deserted, makes a stark contrast to yesterday. A very solitary me swims a solitary lap of the pond. More joy.

The rain starts to fall. I'd better make a dash for it just like Geoffrey Ingram, Geoffrey always gets home as it starts to rain
