I was up and early next morning, first for a dip in the hotel swimming pool, which I had never had the opportunity to try at previous SCW due to being an organiser. The pool was lovely .

Off to breakfast having built up an appetite.

The choice for breakfast was yummy, vast and catered for everyone’s needs. After breakfast it was time to gather in the hall for the start of the days events.
