Swimming and the Duke of Edinburgh (well, almost..)

Hi guys, sorry i've not posted for a while...it's been manic! I'll start doing regular posts again soon but for now here's a couple of pictures.

I'm 3rd from the left in the middle of the shot!

These pictures were taken by Mel at +Work Your Words Copywriting at the Leicester Sharks annual club championships. It was great to get my race head on again!

The one below is not swimming related but it's what's been keeping me busy recently.

This was taken as I came back to HQ after a weekend on my first expedition for the Duke of Edinburgh bronze award.

That's me on the right!

Thanks for looking, more to follow soon :)
