JAYNE WITH A WHY


My life has endured some drastic changes over the past 5yrs. I've moved continents, moved countries, lost my partner in life, lost my dogs, lost the bikes & no doubt about it, lost more than a few marbles along the way. I'm fucked up but valiantly fighting off sanity, which snaps at my heels at regular intervals. I swear a lot. Tell someone who cares.

MAD, TOTALLY MAD


On Crimble Day, 'tis apparently tradition for local inhabitants of the town in which my son lives*, to remove their clothing & take an albeit brisk dunk in the sea.
I thought Spadge just wanted to nut down to the beach, y'know, to check out what lunatics would be participating in this madness. Next thing I know, his threads were off, his swimming rods were on & he plunged into the water!
A local chap I spoke to told me that for the first time in his memory, the beach was frozen solid earlier that morning. Gawd almighty, I was frozen just watching!
A race is held annually & a token award given to the first one who hits the wet stuff. All good fun I must admit, but I seriously think these okes are bloody mad!
