Are there any TOTV people who attend the 2 o'clock lesson that Diane Castle is giving?

Kudos to you, Tom, for "taking the plunge" and learning to swim. I took lessons from Dianne thru the Learning College a couple of years ago. I couldn't put my face in the water prior to the course; after the course my spouse and I went snorkling at St. John's. Dianne is a terrific instructor and very good with novices and helping them get over fear of the water. After a lot of practice, I am now a fairly good swimmer. Keep at it Tom - wonderful sport, great conditioning and aerobic benefit, and with the heated pools, you can swim all winter long.
