Now, as many of you regular visitors will know, when working in the centre during the summer I am regularly to be seen without my sandels, padding round in bare feet. I even wandered back from the Dragonfly Pool the other week without them as it was far too hot and much more comfortable.... however.....

THEY NEVER LOOK LIKE THIS!

Jamie, part of our Black Ops volunteer squad was out helping Nicole with some strimming on Marks Fingers (the long islands in Aveley Pool) and kindly offered to test how stable the edge was (ever the gentleman is our Jamie...).

It was not and despite being a tall chap he sank almost to a level that any bloke would not like to sink....

Oh dear... climbing back out... nice new t-shirt though!


He did have shoes on to start with!

When back at the centre we would not allow him in untill he had hosed himself down.....

Where would be without volunteers!??  ;o)
