Rydal Water

16.8°C in the water, even Mr P came in for an early evening dip (wearing a wet suit of course but he does have very poor circulation so I let him off). That's him in the water waiting for the rest of us to join him.  We hardy women in our swimsuits enjoyed 30 mins in that picturesque and perfect swimming lake that is Rydal Water. One of girls saw a giant pike.
