Dear all,


I had planned to run the Community Fun Run but due to unforeseen circumstances I am unable to participate. Instead I shall be playing my guitar for 24 hours almost non-stop - I need to eat!

Over the 24 hours I will take 3 short breaks for food and will appreciate it if I could have a few volunteers to take up the challenge of keeping me awake and supplying me with water.

The 24 hours will start on the 26th of May at noon and will finish the following noon.

You can sponsor me and donate to World Jewish Relief by clicking here and you can find more about the charity by clicking here

My plan for the day is to wake up at 11am, and at 11:55 there will be an introduction, at 12 I will start playing, there will be 3 short breaks which will be indicated by a sign attached to my guitar, and at 12 the following noon I will finish and fall asleep.

The Pick Of Destiny (pictured) will be used.

Many thanks.

Ben.

FAQs:

How are you going to eat?
I am going to take 3 short breaks for food, but with the aide of a few friends I will be fed snacks and strawed water.

How are you going to go to the toilet?
This is the best bit... Thanks to a a couple of good friends, I have a wireless guitar kit. No more needs to be explained.

How are you going to stay awake for 24 hours?
I don't think staying awake is the problem, but I'll have a friend pinching me and flicking my eyeballs.

What music are you going to play?
I'll be playing requests, but for the rest of the time I'll just be making it up on the spot.

Aren't your fingers going to hurt?
Yes.

Your crazy?
I've been told.
