I'VE DONE IT!!
At about 8:40pm yesterday (14th July) I landed just east of Wissant in France, having swum from Samphire Hoe in England. It took me 12hours 23mins and 10secs.
My poor old arms aren't really up to typing right now but I will try and give all the details tomorrow.
WHOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!! :-)
