Not as funny as it will be wearing it for 18 hours let alone running in that head gear.

Have you noticed how you never saw Batman having to nip to the loo before jumping into the Batmobile and speeding off? Similarly, I don't recall Dangermouse telling Colonel K to hang on a sec while he spent a penny.

Therefore all superheroes would be expected to be able to last the best part of 18 hours without having to perform bladder movements.

It seems in keeping with the conversation to tell you to "piss off" :lol:

Also, this was mocked up by one of the guys at work:

CSouthwell on here's running a social networking experiment for the month of February, which involves replacing your main facebook/twitter/blogspot/whatever picture with something representing a letter of the alphabet. February 1st was something for A, Feb 2nd was B, and so on. Today's is U. I feel I may have missed the point somewhat as I've gone for album covers.

I think the Heathrow start has got to be dead for a world record breaking start. If this attempt is a charity attempt then I don't really think it matters, but if this is also a record attempt, I think if you just look at Andi's journey on his last attempt when he pretty much had a perfect network with a perfect MHE, KO and Hainault and he still missed the record by an hour. Even with CSouthwell's injury holding their team up slighty they would have still had to make the West Harrow run in 6 mins and I don't think all 12 of us can make the run in that time.

Of course I am comparing this all to Andi's route and we could have a completly different one by then but an hour is alot of time to make up....
