Title: Having the bottle when your abled is one thing but
Post by: SJKOO01 on 01 September 2009, 21:43:57

Think that sitting in a bath full of beans all day to raise money for the school takes some doing .

Well this woman deserves my humble respect for managing to do this in my opinion.

When I first saw this I was baffled by how she steered the boat etc. When that was explained I let my toilet-type mind wander on to how she did the other bits....you know.

Carefully, like anyone of us would have to be on a boat ST....!

Serioulsly though... it does make you wonder about building your self confidence by taking on this kind of journey anyway, regardless of mobile or disabled.

One thing that is annoying though, it's got less coverage than the 17yr old chap, yes I know he was on his own, but this lady had the challenge of coping with something not an everyday event - fair play.
