Wow, he is way off course isn't he. I wonder how he ended up in Southsea and I bet he was finding it rather warm last week too. If he had swam for another 3/4 hour he would have ended up on my patch Penguin

That could be true WS, he would feel at home with the winter we are supposed to be having, wonder if he is still there.
