I did 30 laps at the pool today. It took an hour. Then stupid Libby came and did 15 laps in like two minutes or something. But still, 30 laps is pretty bloody good. It's my best ever. It was raining so by the time we were leaving there was no one in the pool. So for the first time I snuck over in the FAST-PACE LANE and did my 30th lap in that. I had the whole lane to myself and just blasted down the middle without even looking out for anyone else. It was terrific. I'm convinced it made me a lot faster.
Robyn and I had a swimming race, and she won. But only just. Although I had a head start. But she had flippers. Although she wasn't using her hands. Just a kickboard. That's a nice word. Like "compote". I'll add them to my word list.
you have to add fenergen as well, not sure of spelling, it’s some sort of medicine

30 is a lot, it’s more than I’ve ever done (well since I actually became a person, rather than in my ignorance, hormone fuelled youth when anything was ‘more’ possible
