[Other Sport] I'm just about to swim the channel

[Cowfold Seagull]

Good luck, enjoy your croissants in the morning.

Just don't dunk them into your coffee, they have some disgusting habits those Frenchies.

Seriously though, what a fantastic thing to be doing, well done you.

Swimming the channel is an amazing feat, but doing it during peak shark season is different gravy. Good luck.

How you getting on

Piggle’s just hit a jellyfish swarm and his nadgers have resultantly ballooned to the size of footballs so he’s doing quite well on the buoyancy front...apparently.

Bit of drag though

When you swim back.... Could you bring me back a half case of Oxford Landing Chardonnay please. ? Only as you're there.

 

[The Andy Naylor Fan Club]

Like anything nautical it's running late. Should be at the start line in 15 minutes.

Probably wet.

Good luck on your venture! A few other bits for me to mention as you carry out your magnificent feat :

1. Don’t forget to wave to Nigel Farage while he sits alone, with a pair of binoculars, on the White Cliffs of Dover.

2. Avoid the sinking Trump flotilla boats, you can’t miss them as the occupants will be very loud.

3. When you make shore in La Belle France do not buy any knocked off replica models of the Eiffel Tower.

Bon chance mon brave!

P.S. By the time you read this post your good deed will have been done, in which case ignore the above and congratulations!

The price of a pint donated. Good luck.

Hope he is surviving!

“Until conclusive proof is presented, however, UK great whites are resigned to the ‘possible, but unproven’ file, along with two other intriguing reports. In one, a nurse shark (Ginglymostoma cirratum), normally a species of tropical waters, was apparently spotted by two divers on the seafloor near Alderney in the Channel Islands during July 2001. In the second, a letter published in the Morning Herald in September 1875 described how the head of a man was found in the stomach of a 12ft tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) that was hacked to death by beachgoers when it beached itself in Brighton.”
