Watery thoughts. Sinking, trying to swim; floundering, trying to float. Come on in - the water is lovely.

In today's #TheLifeScientific, @jimalkhalili interviews @ProfMikeTipton on how our bodies respond to extreme conditions

Most research comes from the perspective of preventing drowning & hypothermia, so can sometimes seem a bit alarming & over-cautious.

... you always make an announcement when you're having a wee!

[Swim Jo 🏊‍♀️ @jointhewater]

You know you're an outdoor swimmer when ...

[Swim Jo 🏊‍♀️ @jointhewater]

... you wear a bikini under your clothes instead of bra and knickers, just in case there might be a chance of a swim at some point during the day!

Evening swim 😊 🏊 ❄

The wind was so cold I really didn't want to get out of my snuggly warm Dryrobe, especially when my swim buddy decided on a river sit instead. Glad I did get in though!

@GarminUK Too late, slackers - I sent the watch back for a refund. So much for customer service.

[Swim Jo 🏊‍♀️ @jointhewater]

@GarminUK @outdoorswimming This is what the Garmin website says about refurbished watches > https://t.co/M0zUDYLS4c

It says these watches are faulty returns that have been fixed at the factory - whereas on chat I was told the watch had never left the factory and had never been used by anyone else.

[Swim Jo 🏊‍♀️ @jointhewater]

@GarminUK Hello there, my new Garmin has stopped working, the phone line is closed and the online support page sends me round in a loop. Can you please help me fix the problem?

[Swim Jo 🏊‍♀️ @jointhewater]

@GarminUK @outdoorswimming Also, the Garmin support centre chat representative told me the replacement watch would be one that had never left the factory or been used by anyone else - whereas Garmin's own website said replacement watches were returns that Garmin had fixed.

Was I told the wrong thing?
