Spotted this pair about to venture in to the North Sea. It's the first of March. The place is bloody freezing in August. Sod that

Great photo of escapees from the local asylum. Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the noonday frost?

In that case more looney tunes than a whole cast of Disney cartoon characters!

We're a hardy breed up here

Nice pictures of the hardy souls.

I can understand the madness. 40 years ago I spent 3 months in Holy Loch. It was summer and the sun came out twice. I have been swimming in Loch Long and the water was bout 45 F. It was followed by huddling next to the heater with a cup of tea (that was half Scotch).

Cheers.

The Holy Loch is positively tropical compared to the North Sea up here.

With all the loch-down madness who can blame them for getting out on a sunny day and acting like they have a life before they go insane.
Nice shot.

Cheers chum.

It was still 45 F in July!
