Riding along on the crest of a Wave……

Riding along on the crest of a wave…….
Saturday is not my usual day for a trip to Porty but this fantastic weather is too good to miss and when someone put a message up online saying they were thinking of swimming early I rose to the bait and changed my routine. I was so glad I did. It was 7:30 but the sun was well risen, blue sky as far as the eye could see, no breeze and it was warm.
There were 3 of us and we got behind the breakers to bounce on the waves. It was hard to come out of the sea and all the time the Scout song was going round in my head:-
We're riding along on the crest of a wave, and the sun is in the sky.
All of our eyes on the distant horizon, Look out for passers by.
We'll do the hailing !
When all the ships around are sailing, 
We're riding along on the crest of a wave,
 And the world is ours.

I spent the rest of the morning doing a washing and defrosting the freezer. Immersion in cold water has the effect of getting one to complete chores you’d rather not do
