It's a while since I did that.
Do What? I hear you ask
Well for the frst Time in 22 years I went for a swim in the sea.
When my beloved Margaret was alive we spent a lot of time up the beach,Margaret didn't swim but loved messing about in the rock pools
When she died I just couldn't face the water without her by my side
I have been talking about it to Jenny for the last couple of days and today I made it happen and it was enjoyable but emotional at the same time.
While I was drying off a neighbour came and hugged me and said I did well and Margaret would have been so pleased
She and Margaret were good pals.so I thought that was nice of her and it made me feel good

I'm so happy for you, Mickey, that you have managed to go for a swim. In a way you've managed to get over that block, Margaret would have been very proud of you, as your neighbour said. Time for another one methinks, if this hot weather continues.

Wow, that's not something I've done in an age, mainly because I'm not a competent swimmer, at least not in the sea. I love rock pool too, fascinating places.

Well done. Nice of your neighbour to say that, and hug you too.
