It was 10c in the water today but very calm and no wind. Saw a wee seal poking its head out to watch us.

Any other chilly dippers here?

Still dipping in local river four mornings a week I love it! Today was one of the hardest days yet water was about 5 degrees but air temp much colder so it was a quick in, splash about then out! Painfully cold on hands gonna try wearing gloves. But I love it!

It’s really good, isn’t it? I do love it too. Miss it terribly when I can’t get to swim.
But 5 is really cold! Wow 🥶

I’m definitely going to try the gloves again next time- and the bootees. Apparently they come off much more easily if you put a plastic bag or pop-sock on under them.
