Swimmerthon - Who's in?
PP you rock!
Pammy - its a 200 length swim for charity! I did it when I was 10 years old when it was for Great Ormand St (my bro was in there quite a while). You can do it in almost every pool in the country any time over the last weekend of April.
Okay - Thread Hijak..... Swimmerthon. Who is in....

Pam (  )

Sam that is a big swim for me! I may have to rope jnr in to do a few lengths for me 
Or I could lend you a wig and bikini and you could dress up as me and do it all for me?

Not quite  unless he happens to really be in the mood for it on the given day.
I should probably make sure I can do at least 95% of the distance myself just to make sure
Otherwise it's going to be solo efforts all round!

Link for anyone interested: http://www.swimathon.org/
Swimathon weekend is 27-29th April. Costs £10 to enter, but only £5 until end of Jan.
My usual pool is participating although times aren't great for me, 6:30pm (2.5hrs) on Fri and 4:00pm (3hrs) on Saturday. Quite tempted though as its the week after VLM  .
