I’ll pm you the details if you like. I’m not 100% certain of the year, twas about 5 or 6 years ago.
I’ll check next week when I’m home and assuage your doubt.

Did a shortened Liffey descent race in a canoe when I was a teenager. Everyone was drinking litres of Coke to try and minimise the impact of any swallowed water

I’ve done two triathlons. Both had the swim event in pools and that was fully intentional. I have absolutely no interest in swimming in rivers, lakes or seas. Swimming voluntarily in the Liffey is my idea of hell.

You can see the rats eyes when you go under the bridges ffs sake

He probably smokes as well

Swimming in pools is my idea of hell. I love a sea swim.

Rivers I’d probably object the most to. In the right situation I might consider lake or sea race.

Each has its place. Pools are for near death experiences doing sessions from hell being shouted at by an irate coach. Sea swims are pure pleasure. Ying and yang.

I didnt shit directly into it. My shit was released into it, along with tbe shit and piss of tens of thousands of others. No wonder the rats are the size of dogs down there
Good luck to all those brave men and women who will swim through it tomorrow.

The shopping trolleys will be like lobster pots, they’ll trap haypes of them before the rats move in.

They’ve only to swim in it once. We’ve to read it all the time on here

Two more swims to report

Last night at Pegs Rock. High tide. In fact the tide was too high for me and I struggled to get back on the rock after but I made it in the end. Just a few grazes on my torso.

This morning in the Guillomene. High tide again but wouldn’t matter in the Guillomene as there are enough handrails to exit safely. Big crowd in swimming. The talk was largely of hurling managers and music festivals.

How’s the new knee?

Did you see my post earlier that Brendan Cummins was sounded out for Waterford job but his rubby loving bosses at Aviva put the kybosh on that?

Another Sunday morning dip at Templetown. You could say it’s becoming a Sunday morning tradition of mine

Some lad close to his PB, head turning sideways to get a gasp of air and the arm of Farah Swaleh Noor floats by… Horrid stuff.
