Would you swim here? Have you swum here? Have you been on an extreme sports holiday? Let us know about it!

Extreme Ironing!

Ian Ambrose, ironing!
Ian Ambrose who served for 12 years with the Royal Regiment of Wales and The Parachute Regiment is taking on a new challenge to help raise money for The Gap, which puts on activities for young people in Swansea, Wales.

He plans to photograph himself ironing in unusual locations, including on canoe, in a gorge and on top of England's highest peak, Scafell Pike.

Apparently, the bizarre sport of extreme ironing was started in Leicester in 1997. Mr Ambrose became aware of the sport on the internet before last year while walking in the Brecon Beacons he came across some students out ironing.

The 32-year-old, who runs an ironing business, says: "I'm ironing every day with the business, so I just thought it would be a good way to support the charity as it is local and raise the profile a bit," he said.

Starting with his trek up Pen-y-Fan, south Wales' highest mountain, on Saturday he has set himself the target of raising £2,500 in a year.

He has already checked the Pen-y-Fan terrain. "We went up and did a 'recce' last week and there was a bit of snow on the top so hopefully that will still be there and I can get a picture in the snow," he added.

He has set up a page on his company website and will update it with photographs after each expedition.

The Gap, which is based at Cornerstone Church in Penlan, helps teenagers from across Swansea develop social skills and gain qualifications such as Duke of Edinburgh Awards.
