Morning Sickness
Sat, 4 Nov 2006 10:33:02 -0000
I vow over and over "never again", but next thing I know, there I am doing
it all over again. Morning training. That's what I mean, what did you think?
Before 6:00am I may look like a recidivist drunk but I'm actually doing it
for the state of my health. Come to think of it, at that time of the morning
I normall ...

Essential Equipment
Thu, 26 Oct 2006 22:36:05 +0100
Any parent will know, to their cost (literally), that a young swimmer's

I know I am preaching to the converted, because the sort of people who read
swimming news groups don't commit the sort of crimes I shall speak of. Most
readers won't be victims either, so bear with me while I look for a bit of
sympathy from the net's swimming elite, for an old splasher who has to swim

Who needs swimming coaches?
Wed, 4 Oct 2006 08:52:08 +0100
When I was small, I used to think that a coach was a large thing with four
wheels which was smelly and belched out smoke, took you all over the
country, cost a lot and made you sick. Since I have grown up (in body at
