John Orentas Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 Some bloke is swimming the length of the Manchester Ship Canal today and tomorrow in aid of a charity.. He said I would not have attempted it 10 years ago but the water is much less polluted now.. The water temperature is 13 deg C.. Rather him than me.
