wbb runs into the cafe panting and sweating!
right..... you are certainly gonna strugle to beat me!!!!!
i dont have a shower... but i have never been one to let a techicality hold me back!
i was prepared to go the exra mile(or 200) to make sure i took part.
i got myself dressed ( clothes, shoes, coat, hat, scarf and gloves ) looked at the clock, then phoned the_tongue.
he drove down to manchester and pulled up outside my house, where i was waiting.. clutching my sponge, showergel and towel.
i jumped into the car and we sped off down the motorway to staffordshire..(only stopping at the services for a pee once) where he pulled up.. and i jumped out of the car, kicked his front door down, ran up to his bathroom, ripped my clothes off, turned the shower on and jumped in.
i scrubbed myself then jumped out and vigourously dried myself as i was running down the stairs.
i leaped back into the car and the_tongue sped off back down the motorway towards manchester.
during the hundred mile journey i dried my hair and dressed myself, ready to arrive back home and run to my computer to post my achievement.
i have not yet calculated my exact time... but i know i started at at 12,34pm.
have i won??? have i??????
I would first like to thank the management (hospital management) for allowing me to use my laptop to post this reply in the task of olympic showering from my hospital bed.
As this was the first time I had seen this post, I decided that the likes of Davej, Sarge , Ice,Dawn, Wbb and all the rest of the competitors by their failings would not stop me attempting this dangerous sport.
So with little or no preperation (I know I know), I cleared a path to the bath room and shower. I have a nice stand alone unit with thermostatic temperature control and glass door.
I made sure that the shower had all the neccessary items to hand including towels.
A test run from the computer to shower room via hall stairs landing and bathroom, gave a time of just under 12 seconds (without roller blades).
Adorned with the required clothes items 5 plus slippers, I once again inspected the course.
All clear.
Right this is it then.
Ten, nine, eight, blah blah one go.
Press enter and run like hell.
All was going very well until I left the shower.
Nearing the top of the stairs, I encountered two very nosey dogs comming to see what all the fuss was about.
I tripped over one of the dogs who like me fell arse over tit down the stairs.
I might add at this point that rover will be fine, after recovering from a fractured left back leg, and teeth loss.
I on the other hand was not so lucky.
Well I was lucky in a way, as the telephone was on a small table at the bottom of the stairs.
I must say that at least one record was broken even if it was not the showering one, and that was the time it took the ambulance to reach me and cart me off to the hospital.
The doctors say that my broken bones will heal but at my tender years it might take some time.
However my pride has taken a big fall, to be found naked at the bottom of ones stairs by two lovely paramedics is a tad umiliating.
The bill I recieved for the clean up of my house, due to water damage was astronomical to say the least (in my haste to try and win the competition I left the shower running and the sponge had blocked the plug hole).
As far as I am cocerned Sarge you can stick this competition as far as you can up your plug hole.
Yours as mad as hell and hurting.
