After the post this morning I dug out my old swimming stuff. I also did my 800m in 1993. Can’t find any of the other certificates but have all the badges. Plus the Water Skills badge for picking up a brick. Also a couple of medals from 1992 and 1993.
Can’t help but think of ‘some mothers do ave’ em’ where he takes his 25m swimming certificate to a job interview. Sincerely hope you have done the same with your much better collection.

The shortest we got a badge for was 25m.
I’m overcome with acute nostalgia
I have a BSC.
800m? Alright big shot, some of us quit as soon as we got our 5m badge.
Get all those down on your CV.
Well I would certainly offer you the job.
I remember getting that purple one. Was the last time I ever really felt proud of myself.
