Love the idea and always wanted to give it a go and SLSC isn't far away from me at Tooting Lido.
But I lack free time and, probably more importantly, I don't think I'd hack it enough to keep at it. 15 deg C water in the Serpentine the other year was chilly enough for my hands/feet/head (the rest of me was a slight bit warmer due to wetsuit and a tactical wee).
Wow, I'm in Tooting and had no idea that the Lido was open over the winter, cheap enough for membership too! Definitely looking into this. I've been over heating at indoor pools recently. Though I suppose I'd have the opposite problem switching to outdoors. Time to look into buying a wet suit...
