Such a sporting epistle!! Narrow boating, lake boating (number 6 capsized!), synchronised swimming, shoplifting (weight lifting with shops!), hiking.... I’m exhausted just from reading it all! Loved the synchronised swimming video and your beautiful hiking photos. Another wonderful read. Thanks so much.
An especially comical post this morning Ms. Holden! "Are you in trouble number six?" ha ha ha! And the water ballet is priceless, especially wrestling with the shark! Both just got to my sense of the ridiculous and I shared them with four others. I always enjoy the wit in your exchange with Terry. How I wish I could stand on the ridge of the South Downs trail with you. ! I would relish every bit ... of the downhill part.
Where you get to walk is amazingly beautiful and I'm inspired to paint a watercolor of one of the photos in your post. The synchronized swimming video was funny; I fondly remembered my college swim team friends doing the same kind of thing in the shallow water of the lap pool. Both the men's and women's swim teams coordinated this effort, and the music was an LP playing on a turntable in the natatorium office, and there were underwater speakers so we could hear the music while synchronizing under water. Such good fun!
Loved the picturesque photos of your hike. I wish we had open space like that here. Every piece of open land ends up being a shopping mall or some kind of store. Money talks.

I'm going to try and write letters like yours and Terry's. The envelope would definitely be worth opening. Cheers...
Another brilliant piece Rebecca - I loved the synchronised swimmers and kept giggling out loud as I watched it. Very unladylike.
Plenty of "chortles" this morning, Rebecca. Thank you!

Sorry, but I think you have mistaken me for my twin brother. I am hereby marking this post in my inbox with Return to Sender

Glad you could fit a walk in between the rain showers.
