Outdoor Traders are launching Columbia’s new OutDry range and are inviting anyone to go along to the store on the Sat 3rd & Sun 4th of September to get a free pair of Columbia OutDry shoes worth £110 with any Columbia OutDry footwear purchase.
They even had a stall on the Market Place today demonstrating the products
and gave us snow in September.
Gorgeous day. Too good to be in doors. I see most of the scaffolding remains. It looks as if just the lift quarter is being removed, so my announcement two days ago was a little premature.
I caught this chap walking down the precinct today in a wet suit. He will be swimming the channel next Thursday for the charity Footsteps, who have worked miracles with his second son – born with severe cerebral palsy. The website is www.swiminasuit.com .
Tomorrow I will be having my last weekly swim in the outdoor pool of the season. It closes after Sunday. Most of the time the water has been warm despite the cool summer. Only twice did it feel cold in the water. Often there have just been the three lifeguards watching just me, or a small group, so despite free swimming for under 16s and a much better service I don’t think they did that well. It is so weather dependent.
Today I heard the first clang of scaffolding poles being loaded into a lorry. After seven months of being covered in scaffold and netting the first corner of the County Hall was revealed today.
