Yes Kev, it was talked about when I was a kid (many years ago!) but I believe it to be a myth! anyone who knows Oglet shore, with its eddy's and whirlpools, even at low tide would know just how dangerous this would be.Quote:

Yes you can do it! Someone did it either last year or the year before it was in all the woolly back local papers and north west tonight tv.Quote:
