Sparkie fizzles out

Grief it's cold, not to mention we had the first snow of the winter today. Well actually it was technically closer to sleet and although it didn't lie on the ground as I drove up to Consett I could see the white tops of the moors in the distance. Brrrrr

The original Evil Mutant Swim Coach had given way to Evil Mutant Swim Coach II (otherwise known as Framie) and actually the session was ever so slightly gentler than the recent Sunday's thrash and dash. I'm not sure if I'm in any fit shape

Sparkie Walton was well intentioned and dived in to start the set, he lasted 8 lengths before succombing to his man flu and abandoning the session. I'm not totally unsympathetic as I recognise that there's nothing worse than trying to swim when you can't breathe... get well soon Graham.
