Quick Dip in Criccieth

The tapering down for the big swim has gone well. I had a swim at Criccieth off the coast of North Wales at the weekend. The Conditions were a little rough, more so for Ruth as safety cover than me. I've been busy getting all the kit I will need for the big one ready this week. I didn't think you would need so much stuff, over and above the hat and goggles, but we now have 3 large boxes of equipment including flasks, Maxim, warm clothes etc. The weather forecast is starting to look better as the week goes on, so let's keep our fingers crossed. We travel down to Dover on Thursday and will be ready to go as soon as we arrive. All we need is the nod from Lance, and France, here we come!!
