We did it!



Just a quick post to say that Kate and I completed our 2011 English Channel crossing on Monday 25th July in a time of 9 hours 58 minutes! We smashed it!!!!!!!!!!!

Our pilots, crew and supporters are simply the best in the world - FACT ; we are both overwhelmed but very proud. Kate and I will post a write up of the journey as there are some very humorous moments!

I intend to have some celebratory drinks at my favourite pub - The Lady Bay on Friday evening (29th July) from 4 ish......there's some serious catching up to do! Please come and join me and hopefully Kate will make an appearance too (unless she goes camping?)

Kate Vines - thank you from the deepest part of heart for making my dream come true!

Let the good times roll and bring on the next challenge!!! Just x

  2. Thanks Chris - we'll probably keep up the Trent swimming and put in an appearance just one day a week; so don't forget to give us a wave x
