In one week only - the tide window opens for Simon's channel swim - I'm going across the channel as his support swimmer with a crew of 5 or 6. We're really excited about this as its finally happening. Today we are only doing up to 3 hours ... And aside from some pesky compass jellyfish ( we have all been stung every day ) that feel more like nettles - all is on course for a monster swim. Closer to the time I'll be posting the start hour and links for following our journey across. It will take 11 or so hours of swimming if all goes to plan #channel #swimming
