“First of all may I thank the very many of you who responded.

Only three showed a willingness to swim so it has been decided to delay the start of our season by two weeks. The first swim is now planned for Tuesday 30 April 2013. It will still be cold but, hopefully, the general weather will improve by then.

Apologies to those of you who wished to swim but I look forward to seeing you on the 30th.”

He completed the 21-mile challenge in 17 hours and 51 minutes.

“I do feel an immense sense of achievement and relief that I have been successful. This has been an incredible personal challenge for me and my focus has always been to help raise money for Hope for Guernsey and Wessex Medical Research, a cause that I am extremely passionate about.

“Coupled with the fact that a man of my ‘grand’ age can achieve such a physical and mental challenge proves that you can live younger if you keep active in mind and body. I’ve never been one to sit on my laurels.”
