    Lou has reached an age of reflection and wants to swim to France. Or does he? Is his behaviour down to ambition, a sense of duty, escapism, or sheer desperation? Should he not be content with his lot? Has he got what it takes? This training diary documents the journeys and friendships that meet their inevitable test at the hands of nature. Sales of this book support the cancer charity Fish Aid.This is a book about challenge, adventure and discovery. It is not a novel, as all of the happenings are based on genuine events. 'Gentlemen of a certain age' may well recognise some of the traits and frailties displayed by the main characters. Swimmers, and particularly those responding to the call of open water, will find the content both useful and interesting. The mixture of humour, reflection and real life experiences will resonate with all readers. For chocolate fans, there is a purist's recipe for preparing hot cocoa.Proceeds from the sales of this book will be forwarded to Fish Aid. Known formally as the Anthony Pilcher Bone Cancer Trust, this charity raises funds for the Bone Cancer Research Trust. Anthony Pilcher died of osteosarcoma in 2002, aged 15.
