Lost in touch with an old mate Kevin Stemp and when I searched came across your site.<BR/>Great to hear that you swimmed the channel...what an achievement!<BR/><BR/>I think years ago in the early 80"s we all hanged out together.

I did used to coach the beginners at the old Bury St Edmunds Swimming Club before it became WSSC though. I taught my children. Let me know when she next swims, and I'll see if I can see what is going on.Hoffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374896237669350980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951533039058879297.post-25387297670557607762007-10-04T10:33:00.000+01:002007-10-04T10:33:00.000+01:00Maybe you should give Pickle swimming lessons, sh...Maybe you should give Pickle swimming lessons, she is the only person I know who kicks for all she is worth but either doesn't move AT ALL or goes in the opposite direction. Even her swimming teacher is puzzled by it!Picklesmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09652159544818433247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951533039058879297.post-31087974059921160172007-10-04T09:22:00.000+01:002007-10-04T09:22:00.000+01:00Thanks PM.

It was my whole life up in flames at the time. We trained there every day. I have all the newspaper cuttings on it in my scrap book. We had to train at Lakenheath and Thetford for about 2 years I think it was. I couldn't believe it when it burnt down the second time! I tried to get it re-built as a 50 Metre swimming pool, but most councllors at St. Edmundsbury Brough Council are not interested in sport IMO.Hoffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374896237669350980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951533039058879297.post-27671545244098903292007-10-04T09:12:00.000+01:002007-10-04T09:12:00.000+01:00Well Done Hoffy!

I only got as far as my 1st proficiency before the Leisure Centre burnt down (the first time). Coincidence as Picklessister had to stop swimming there when it burnt down the second time!Picklesmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09652159544818433247noreply@blogger.com
