Snow swimmers

“Though it looks like a Christmas pic, this one was actually taken early April last year, when we had a freak snowstorm. As seasoned all-year-round sea swimmers, the first thing my friends and I think when we see snow is ‘Quick – down to the beach for a swim!’ Actually it’s easy when you go in regularly and keep acclimatised. On this particular day we used the Brighton Sailing Club to change in – and even managed to persuade some of the sailors into the sea with us. They had all been hanging about at their bar looking miserable because the first day of their sailing season had been scuppered by the storm – until we came along and offered them an alternative activity! Here we see Nick Sayers, more famous for organising naked and low-tide bike rides, coming in from the cold.”
