threemonkeysEvery morning at about 4am, a car departs from my neighbours across the road. You understand that I don't witness this happening every time, but I have been awake or awakened often enough to know that it has been a regular thing for a few years now. I have enough of a view to know that it is the family's #1 son departing the house for points unknown. To be honest, I thought he had got a job which had a very early start time.
I now think I know where he is going. You see, yesterday I found out that my neighbour's eldest son holds the record for the fastest swim across Cook Strait. That is a 26K swim across effectively open seas. I have to suspect that he did a bit of practice for that.
The things you find out. Turns out his younger brother is a national age group underwater hockey rep. And I always thought the family was into tennis (in my defence, they did build a tennis court - not a swimming pool).
