Does anyone know - apart from Rothervalley in the summer with the tri club of any locations where you can don a wet suit jump in and swim?

Training in the pool for me isn't the same as the real thing - open water so want to get out in the water a bit more.

With the UK having so much red tape around flipping everything we do practically, health and safety gets in the way all to often of people having a bit of fun.

Hence there are virtually no diving boards at pools anymore - its like this country is trying to encourage the playstation generation to evolve or something as more and more poeple get their kicks out of a virtual world.

Anyway :-)

Some tips would be appreciated.

Cheers,
