Virgin boss Sir Richard Branson was unable to kite surf the 24 miles across the English Channel on Tuesday August 24, 2010, due to high winds and rough seas. Watched by Princess Beatrice he took his family on the expedition from Dungeness in Kent.
He has pledged he will make another attempt in a bid to celebrate his 60th birthday as the oldest person to achieve the feat. For full story go to www.yourshepway.co.uk 'Branson fails cross Channel kite surf attempt'
