Wearily onwards we go…

It’s a very weary ‘DJ/presenter’ writing this blog entry.  Less than two hours to go, and all I want to do is get finished and go home to my bed.  Although I didn’t start broadcasting till 8pm on the Friday, I was up an about at lunchtime that day so have actually been awake for closer to 60 hours!

picture-034.jpgI’ve had my final meal of pork casserole (which looked and tasted very similar to yesterday’s pork goulash (except there was one extra piece of meat today as well as a tasty dumpling!).  I can’t really face another coffee, after the countless cups I’ve had.

There are three tombola prizes left – a box of M&S Belgian chocolate biscuits, a little bottle of lager and a fish supper for two courtesy of a chippie round the corner from the hospital.

I’ve got three dedications for the final hour of the show:

  • Any Elvis song for Miriam King (fittingly)
  • Simply the Best by Tina Turner for Rose Ditchburn
  • Ronan Keating’s “Rollercoaster” for Sandra Sinclair

I’d like one of those to be the final song of the show… am leaning to The Best but if I pick the right Elvis song it could be a fitting end.

Any thoughts gratefully received before 9.45pm lol

I’ll do a catch-up posting later in the week when my head stops spinning, but thanks to everyone who has emailed, texted, phoned and posted on here with their good wishes for the event – I really couldn’t have done it without your support.

Good night and God bless.

    Well done Craig! I doubted it but I can assure anyone reading this that you did it ‘non stop’ (despite the accusations by the BBC – tarring everyone by their same brush!)

    Well done mate! An inspiration.

    Keep blogging!

    Incredible achievement!!!!! Talking to the staff and the public, everybody who know’s the ordeal you put yourself through is well impressed. I’m not sure I could do it! I was feeling tired when the Mayor came in at the start. Well Done! Especially for getting 2 cup of coffee out of one tea bag! Amazing!
