Blossom Silver Bunny Blossom starts every morning with a swim. Lake, loch, or lido if it’s open water and questionably cold, she’s already diving in. (“Sharpens the whiskers,” she insists.)

You might expect spa days and herbal teas from her dainty look, but no she lives for a chilly 6am plunge. She’s even invented her own stroke, using her ears like little propellers!

Once she’s out, she bundles up in a woolly towel, records her split times, and swears it’s “not competitive”… despite very obviously racing the ducks.
