Saga of Ray
We had a visitor in the Gunnamatta Pool courtesy of a very high tide last week. Ray was spooking quiet a few people due to his size. he liked to swim laps of the pool in the early hours looking for the EXIT sign. Sutherland Council arranged for contractors to remove Ray from the pool enclosure. After one unsuccessful attempt hindered by a crowd of schoolchildren on an excursion, an early morning exercise by the contractors rounded him up and managed to guide him back out of the pool area.

In a display of precision swimming Ingrid Moon was 0.01 secs from her time to be the winner.
