I was in a swimming club in my youth. Was never good enough to be competitive but I did get drilled with good technique. I've lost a lot of that over the years and could do with some refreshers. And I never really did learn how to tumble turn properly.

Not bothered about improving performance as such, but swimming is more enjoyable if you can do it right.

Hosking, unfortunately, owns Locomotive Services Ltd, which owns and runs many of the preserved mainline steam and diesel locomotives.  He has money to burn.

Sadly Fox will not be reduced to busking for pennies.  His sugar daddy will be paying the bills.

Interesting, I have wondered about lessons. I used to do lifesaving at school so could swim 2 miles or more even towing using backstroke/ sidestroke. Never really caught front crawl.
This last 10 days on holiday I have been following some videos on YT and really seen an improvement so may go for lessons once home. I may have to retire again to make time!

I think both are correct and different aspects of the same.

The Elon Musk defence only works if you're Sith Ifrican and can claim you were using an local term of mild abuse, in the same way as a British teenager from the 1980s calling you a spaz didn't mean they thought you had cerebral palsy.

Lozza is, as he keeps telling us, very British and unfortunately for him the judge knows "paedophile" is not mild ribbing.
