gear, pants, and wally hats


Its that time of the year - we go though the gear and people get giddy

For the record yes we do use comfort on the mannequin clothing (people would not believe it last night) and

IF ANYONE can help us source an underwater rugby ball (I didn't think they existed either) or can make suggestions on suitable water pistols (are there unsuitable ones?) we're all ears

as for the lifesaving pants pictured....... no

wally hats anyone ?

courses - we go public next weekend so get your name in - Pool & Beach Lifeguard, Lifesaving TA

On this weeks "to do " list
- iron the baby grows
- buy two heads
- get coloured mannequin
- get a tailor to sew a grab bag
- and dry clean the mannequin bags

you could not make this up

..... what a hobby, golf seems like sanity

Check your post

OK no more talk of turkey

its 2008 and we have a lot of work to do

In the post today is the (late) term application - as you know we are already into T2 but we hold off the paperwork till after Christmas being the nice people that we are!

Included in this mailing is a new form for completion by your guardians / parents (or you if you are 18+). This is essential for everyone and is compulsory from 2008.

Staff - there are some changes happening affecting us all (all good) MC will be in in contact and will speak Sunday otherwise speak John, Mark or Kate

we will be looking at lanes again for new members on Sunday week - obviously we don't expect much movement but where we can we will be back filling.

thats about it - too cold for surfing this weekend so feet up and see you all in the pool Sunday

take care and look after yourselves

p.s. anyone who did a Christmas swim but did not get their santa seal MC will have them Sunday ;-)

p.p.s latest AED and some new pics up this weekend
