Breaking the law

This picture was of me swimming illegally in the river Test in Hampshire..I believe that it is the most expensive fishing on the planet..Eight hundred pounds per day..It is a lovely little chalk stream and is so clean and vigorous..I swam in memory of the Legendary swimmer and free thinker Roger Deakin who died last year..His book waterlog has inspired lots of my holiday adventures, and I am sure that my trespass would have been appreciated..I was almost looking forward to a mid swim row with a toff..The route that we followed last year was often along river courses.And each river had its own unique style and flavour..Remember..The person that you love is seventy six percent water...
