Poll results are in....re count demanded

The poll results Poll:Whats the best way to heat up after a winter swim are in and its a staggering majority - 62% in favour of
HAPPY PEAR SOUP
Much to every our amazement run a marathon came a very close second at 0.2%
However UN observers have expressed concern at the outcome of the poll citing discrimination against fair weather swimmers in spite of their fearsome reputation for endurance swims and are demanding a re count.
However it seams the best way to heat up after a winter swim is to play the guitar as demonstrated by this gentleman here
Dont forget to leave a comment and next years swim will be at 12.30.
Happy New Year also to our friends in Soens Folk (Lake People)

Poll results are in......

Its official folks...the best way to heat up after a winter swim in Happy Pear soup
