One of our recent guests from Cardiff, Wales was inspired by our Montenegro swimming holiday and wrote a nice song about the trip experience.
Strel Montenegro Swimming Song
(to the tune of Gold! by Spandau Ballet)
Thank you for coming here
I´m sorry that it´s ending so soon
The first trip to Montengro in June
These are my swimming days
Slowly being eaten away
Just another play for today
Oh but I´m proud of you, but I´m proud of you
Nothing left to make me feel wrong
You have left me swimming so strong
Strel
Always believing in your soul
You´ve got the power of stroke
Go Montenegro!
Always breathing both ways,
Cos you are
Strel
Glad that you´re bound to return
There´s so much that we have learned
About Montenegro, always breathing
After the rush has gone
I hope you find a little more time
Remember we were partners in crime
It´s only two days ago
You first rubbed Vaseline on our necks
We´re fitter and can all feel our pecs
Now we´re leaving you,
Bonded like we were behind a prison wall
But seagulls kept us away, kept calling …´Caw´ Seagull sound)
Strel
Always believing in your soul
You´ve got the power of stroke
Go Montenegro!
Always breathing both ways,
Cos you are
Strel
Glad that you´re bound to return
There´s so much that we have learned
About Montenegro, always breathing
Bonded like we were behind a prison wall
But seagulls kept us away, kept calling … ´caw..´ (Seagull sound)
Strel
Always believing in your soul
You´ve got the power of stroke
Go Montenegro!
Always breathing both ways,
Cos you are
Strel
Glad that you´re bound to return
There´s so much that we have learned
About Montenegro, always breathing
