Definitely Dover bound for Dave!

So it looks like we are definitely on for a trip to Dover and Dave's Solo Channel attempt Part 2! We are all packed and meeting up for the off in about 30 mins. We have decided to travel this afternoon, with Dave due to start his attempt at provisionally 0600 in the morning (Weds 27th July). As we know things can all change in a flash, but fingers crossed the weather will stay good and the waters calm. I am one of Dave's crew on the boat, alongside fellow tri club member and channel relay bod Sambo Windless and tri club swim coach Kev! I am also the support swimmer. So when Dave is really tiring or feels he needs a boost, I am able to get in the water and swim along side him. He anticiaptes asking me in approx 3 times during the swim. Great to be able to help a fellow swim buddy and also good practice/training/experience once again, before my own up and coming attempt! Waterproof kit, warm kit, sun stuff, swim stuff, vaseline, food, energy drink, ginger biscuits (good for seasickness), Sea sickness tablets, sleeping bag, blankets, camera etc....etc..... all packed and ready to go. ALLEZ ALLEZ DAVE!! Will keep you updated. Au revoir for now ;-)
