It is in an open air lido with 100 other people plus support crew. I doubt it will be boring as the support will be amazzing, but it will be bloody hard work, cold and painful
Dorkey question,sorry Caz, but is it really 24 hours of continual swimming, with no breaks? What happens if you fall asleep? Tons and heaps and more tons of luck, you're an amazing lady to even consider doing something like this, let alone actually do it!
An excellent plan, but with a but. Chickens like cheese
. A LOT. If you mix cheese with chickens you just get chickens. Big, big chickens.
Hope Mouse is getting on okay.
Not a continuous swim. I do 1 mile per hour. When I get to the end of the mile I get out, eat, drink, try to keep warm and maybe get some sleep. So roughly 35 min of swimming and 25 min of 'rest' per hour, for 24 hours.
If I fall asleep then my buddy, Katrina, will kick me hard and shout in my ear. I will be taking a lot of caffeine on board to help me stay awake. Katrina's job is to count my lengths, prepare my feeds, help me get dressed, push me back in the pool at the end of each hour and look out for signs of hypothermia. She's a real bully and I think she will enjoy being nasty to me. Mind you, she also has to put up with nervous and moody Caz, which is no mean undertaking.
Wow. Not often I'm speechless. Wow.
Thanks for asking Hash - I was wondering too (and had visions of SC peeing in the pool
)
That's just awesome SC!!
Go Caz!
All the best for tomorrow S-Caz
Blast those cheese loving chickens, you'd think they don't want to be commercially desirable!
Good luck SuperCaz.

Yes tons and tons of luck Caz. What time do you start?
Best of luck for tomorrow Caz, I don't have your mob number but will be cheering you on from the sidelines.
MrKJ is home, to celebrate Mini puked all over his beautiful wooden floor, my best saucepans and her wellies. She was distraught about the wellies!
(((KJ))) I'm loving the tales of Mini, excellent.
(((SCaz))) Best of luck today, you'll be great.
(((Hash))) Tea's up.
My sourdough starter is frothing nicely, so either breakfast or a handy doorstop will be in the mundane kitchen tomorrow morning.
Happy birthday Saffy, have a lovely one.
Caz, what you're doing is amazing, will be thinking of you x
Fank you
I am awake rather early due to a dog needing a wee 
Hash, is it easy to make a sourdough started? I must admit Paul Hollywood made it look very simple (and sexy)
Game Face Caz, will you be able to check in?
Happy Birthday Saffy, have a lovely day.
Yay! Happy Birthday Saffy.
A lucky guess.
Happy birthday to Mr P too
xx
Mornings! Good luck today SCaz.
Happy birthday to the Saffy and Puffy twins
I have sunburned knees.
Bin related birthday wishes...
Wow, what a day for birthdays, it's mine as well, but at least I have another year before its a big number.
Mr Steady got me a card that has a badge declaring "Perfect Wife".
Morning all - happy birthday to Mr P and Saffy
I've just left the car in the garage
new clutch on the way.
I'm having difficulty typing today as I was cooking away merrily last night and using my brand new sharp as a razor mandolin - and now I only have 9 fingerprints. *ouch* I neatly sliced off the top layer of skin off my middle right finger...the kids walked in as MrGFB was applying the bandage - it looked like I was disrespecting him
Happy birthday Steady too
Thanks,
Ouch GFB, at least it should be a nice clean precise cut to heal quickly.
Blunt knives make a worse cut because they tend to go deeper and leave jagged edges.
Afternoon and happy birthday to all the birthdat people. That's going to be a very big cake if we all get three slices each.
Wishing you all the best todat SC, hope the swim goes well.
Today has not been kind to us so far in the Hog-Mouse mog house.
Happy birthday wishes to Mr. P & Steady.
(((mousey)))
*hugs*
YAY Happy Birthday too, SteadyCJ
See we have quality people on this thread
((more hugs for Mousey))
