GB Transplant Games 2010

Well it's the GB transplant Games this weekend, it actually started yesterday Thursday with the opening ceremony in Bath City Center, Last year it took place in Coventry where I believe there were over 600 competitors, children and adults all of whom have had an Organ transplant; with 1000 plus spectators.

The first of Transplant Games were held in 1978 in Portsmouth, UK with just 100 competitors and has taken place Annually ever since and hopefully will keep growing. from these games will be chosen a team to represent GB in the world Games.
My event is the 140metre Kayak sprint which is taking place tomorrow morning ( Sat 21st ) I was going up today so I can watch other events, and meet other people, well that was the plan until I was about to leave and felt a rumble in the jungle, so I'm hoping it will be OK tomorrow. I don't want to go without any food because that'll be disastrous for the event so fingers crossed; I'm going to say I'm beginning to get well hacked off with it, so gonna try and get in to see the doc today, again!!! and demand something be done.
I hope when I get to do the event they don't turn me away as my leg is still in plaster, but nothing been said to me so far,  but you never know, (health and safety), but then I did the 26mile on the Thames. They'll have to drag me screaming and shouting before I give up lol.
