Day 1 ocean swim for cancer research Saturday 8/8/26

Dear Friendsย 

Saturday 8/8 was my first swim for daffodil fund raiser 2026 for cancer research. Tuesday 11/8 was my 2nd swim for daffodil fundraising. Wednesday 12 was my 3rd swim! Saturday 15/8 will be my 4th swim.Monday 17/8 was my 5th ocean swim this time @ Cronulla where there was a wall of mullet so deep so high so bottomless we couldnโ€™t see the end of it two dolphins and a bird attacking me in the legs grabbing them with spiked feet under water and then attempting to eat me!ย 

Ha ha! Iโ€™m swimming every Monday Wednesday & Saturday in the ocean with the Harold Holt swimmers in Bundeena supporting cancer research. Sometimes other days too! Also swimming with a group in Cronulla.ย 

The funds I raise from my Daffodil Day Dip challenge will help power world-class cancer research to save lives.

Meanwhile I have swum 10 swims now! Mostly in Bundeena at Gunyah Beach! Today 24th August was my 10th swim to raise funds.

Your support means so much to me. Please help create a cancer free future by donating to my fundraiser now! ๐Ÿ’›

Best wishesย
