'Raising The Roof' Summer Star Signs

Aquarius - 22 January – 19 February

It’s a time to ask yourself some serious questions this month. Why do kamikaze pilots wear helmets? And if everybody loves a winner, why does everyone hate Adwick?

Pisces – 20 February – 20 March

Even the best swimmers need to take a break once in a while. However you are not one of the best swimmers. I saw you in training the other night, come on pull your finger out and get on with it.

Aries – 21 March – 20 April

Since Rossington got that new starting system you have become convinced that you are 80s singer Kelly Marie, and each false start you wow the balcony with a rendition of your most famous hit, ‘It Feels Like I’m In Love (Woo woo)’. Don’t let this worry you, but at least try and vary your act a bit at coming galas.

Taurus – 21 April – 21 May

It seems all those training sessions spent perfecting your turns will eventually pat off this month as you take up a new career as a male model. It seems only Mr. Tony Heppel’s expert coaching prevented you from walking straight off the end of the catwalk.

Gemini – 22 May – 2I June

When things are up against you this month just ask yourself ‘What would world swimming ace James Hickman do in this situation?’ Then stay at home and let Steven Mellor bail you out.

Cancer – 22 June – 22 July

Birthdays are not only a time for celebration, but a time for careful consideration and decision making as well. Now is it going to be Jack Daniels or Stella, spirit or beer, this celebration will require consideration.

Leo 23 July – 23 August

You will come to a point this month where you have to make an important decision, and ensure you follow the right signs. So whether it be Slow Lane or Medium Pace Lane make sure you swim anti-clockwise for God’s sake

Virgo - 24 August – 23 September

Times will become hard this month. Another series of Big Break is looking less and less likely and Jim Davidson will no longer return your phone calls. Best thing to do is don your favourite jazzy waistcoat and sit tight.

Libra - 24 September – 23 October

Although you might prefer to see this week as a series of exciting and glittering events, why not put things into perspective and look at it for what it really is. Training Monday, Wednesday and Friday with a Pocklington League gala at the weekend. Not quite so glittering now eh?

Scorpio – 24 October – 22 November

In many parts of the world swimmers are renowned as top athletes with the perfect physiques to match. However, this is Rossington, so be thankful for what you’ve got

Sagittarius – 23 November – 21 December

No matter how bad things get this month look at the positive side and remember they could be far worse. There is another METS Championships coming up. Best lock yourself in the equipment cupboard for the near future.

Capricorn – 22 December – 21 January

They say that time is the greatest healer. So why not switch your watch to the other arm this month and get rid of that niggling wrist injury
