Sir,
"Probably the best Swim in the world" - another fantastic day for Saundersfoot.
We believe that the crowd was up by a few thousand on last year. This may explain why the bucket collection was also up - by over £1,000.
People were attracted to the Swim by the continuous publicity the Observer has allowed us to generate. We thank you most sincerely for giving us such splendid coverage in the week's leading up to the New Year's Day Swim.
Many thanks,
Martyn Williams,
Saundersfoot Festivities, Organisers of the
New Year's Day Swim
