    Morning all.
    On New Year's Day, I will be doing the dip in the North sea at Sheringham. There will be a collection to raise funds for the RNLI at Sheringham. If any of you fancy a day out to watch, or even to come and take part with me, it would be great to see you there.
    It's a great cure to clear the head :)
    There is an official 'Sheringham Dip' page on facebook somewhere.

    Love your avatar Maestro. Is that your new system for picking winners? I'm thinking of as similar system (ie with my back to the dart board)

    Enjoy your dip Resurgam. These type of events are bonkers but a great cause in the RNLI. Have you seen the advert on the Beeb that was filmed in Cromer? I thought it was overlong until I realised where it was. Happy memories from there with the long departed grandparents.

    Might start out that way but they’ll be pea smugglers very soon.
    Good luck mate

    UPDATE:

    Just short of 300 people went in for the dip, and just over £1500 was raised for lifeboat from bucket collections on the day.

    PLUS, we all chipped in and had £10 e/w on Nautical Nitwit at Cheltenham with skybet. 20/1 paying 5 places.
    Needless to say a few merry crew members during the afternoon in the pub :)

    If you want to see any of the fun, the I'm sure if you google BBC look east, you'll find clips on there <ok>
