You can swim in a place called Lough Muskry.
But it’s a bit of a hike in, two hours, by all accounts.

Have you made your peace with death yet?

For a few minutes I was wondering if I’d actually drowned and I was in some afterlife like your man in Ghost. But then I went pulling weeds at the front gate and I realised that the afterlife wouldn’t be that shitty.

Not much detail on the exact route, but a fair achievement all the same.

Choppy too

No plebs showed up I hope?

Twas. An older guy out for a walk with his wife got a slap of a wave and slipped and fell down onto the rocks, he was lucky he didn’t go in altogether.

Don’t bother your arse swimming if you want to be good at swimming

First swim of the year there in the Guillomene this morning. It was beautiful.

Did you purposefully wait until June?

Always do. I’ve no interest in swimming in the winter.
