Still waiting for good news about the weather. Pete reports that the winds in the Channel are still high and therefore makes it too dangerous to swim as the waves are far too big. We are third in line behind two solo swimmers. No swimmers have gone out yet at all and my thoughts are with an Australian guy who has flown over to do a solo swim. It is not looking good.
Unfortunately, the more time that goes by means that we may miss the neap tide window and may have to reconsider doing the swim during the next neap tide at the end of September. This is something we really don't want to contemplate though and we are praying for good weather!
I've just been out to stock up on loads of food for the swim. This includes the usual mix of high carb stuff; pasta, jaffa cakes etc. Also have got loads of ginger nuts as they help with sea-sickness!
