Can You Swim?
94 Answers
So many people seem unable to and I never understand why. Is it just a matter of confidence?

My mum was a distance swimmer so I think I could swim before I could walk. Like my mum I was a distance rather than a speed swimmer although I was my school's junior champion in the dim and distant past. All my family are swimmers and wee Daniel ( great- grandson of 5 months) has already been in the pool with his mum and dad.

I can swim, but never particularly enjoyed it or was particularly good at it. I dislike the whole process of stripping-off, climbing into a costume in an inhospitable cubicle and then making my way to the pool (which is always cold). If there were no more than 2 or 3 others there it would be OK - but you can't move sometimes and get splashed in the face, which I hate.
Having said that, before lockdown I had been going swimming regularly for a year and managed to swim half a mile - it helped my spine which is a bit damaged. I can't raise the enthusiasm to do it all over again and it has become much more expensive.

Never underestimate the water, however well you may swim :(
