Bloomsday swim at Sandycove

Details

Straw hats and Joycean attire not compulsory but certainly (heavily) encouraged. :-)

"Come forth, Lazarus. And he came fifth and lost the job"
(Ulysses, chapter 8).

Let's celebrate Bloomsday by having a swim in Joycean attire.

Read

The final lines of Molly's soliloquy (obviously not all 40 pages of it), will be read.

Swim

Let's have a dive into the snotgreen and scrotumtightening sea. The swim is at your own risk! We are no lifeguards and we only arrange the meeting point. Make sure you have enough layers to keep warm before and after the swim, bring something warm to drink too. Some wear wetsuits, others don't so, some want to swim a bit of distance, others just want dip and get out - it's your swim, do what you want and meet us after...

Eat

Having demonstrated our incredible bravery, we will continue our adventure at a local café (time and venue TBC later, will try and source one that hopefully provides Joycean fare). Eating and drinking are at your own risk too. Will your eyes be bigger than your stomach? Don't leave it too late to sign up for the swim so I can book enough seats in the café afterwards.

If you have questions, comments, suggestions, post them in comments for this swim. Browse discussions if you want to ask about the group or other events.

See you on Sunday June 15.
