Marilyn's not in my destiny
Feeling ever so slightly (or maybe not so slightly) peeved. With one of my kids likely to swim the Open Water Classic at Brighton, SA next year, I thought I would sign up to be a Marilyn, have a bit of fun and support the Cancer Council. Well, I was reading through the registration and got to the part about buying the swimsuits. Sizing a bit unhelpful with no size guide attached but what really annoyed me was that, A. You don't get to choose the style (and some are a bit plunging) and B. No option for breast form pockets. And this is run with the Cancer Council! Really???? And of course, no contact details to complain to.

- @Sister My dear friend...how gorgeous you look AND very different to when i saw you last!!!! :)
So sorry I missed seeing you on the TV. What a great job you did...you go girl & you rock that blonde wig!! xx - @wendy55 Yes it was - I did say important stuff first but they just used the snippet about it being cold. I saw myself bopping down Jetty Road, too - why walk when the Navy band are getting into the jazz?
If anyone in SA is thinking about doing it next year I would say go for it - so much fun. - Wow, that’s fantastic!! 😃. You look amazing! 😍😍 Great job!! 👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻👌🏻♥️
- Like @arpie I'd never heard of it before and when it was mentioned on here I had to Google it. There has been a lot of coverage this year, though.
Great photo ! Amazing fund-raising job by all. - Woohoo! Well done @Sister! I’d never heard of the Marilyn swim before! There was very good coverage on either channel 7 or 9 the other day! You may spot yourself! Xx

wendy55 - Wowee you look STUNNING girl! <3

Destiny realised... Hard work paddling but so much fun - I'll definitely do it again next year. And they've raised over $150,000 so far this year.
