Anyone who saw David Marsh, the Humber McVeigh operations director bobbing about half way across the Humber recently might have put two and two together and made five. They would have been wrong!
The 48-year-old super-fit David, far from being "tired of it all," was having a dip — a nine-mile dip. He set out two years ago to learn to swim with Geoff Hallam's swimming club on a Sunday morning at a local pool. This month he achieved his ambition to swim the Humber from Spurn Point to Brighton Slipway at Cleethorpes.
I never could make out if he swam to keep fit for transport management or vice versa, Now all is revealed. We also know why he hovers in the background at the Transport Association lunch while the rest of us hover at the bar gaining inches and losing years. Well done, David.
