Ok, so now I have hooked almost 300 of you gorgeous folk with my blog I can finally reveal my master plan (cue evil laughter)........
When I first started telling people about my swim my fabulous friend, Denise, suggested that it would be a great opportunity to raise some money for charity. It didn't take long before I thought of the fantastic team at The Blurt Foundation. Blurt is a small UK based charity which helps those of use who suffer from depression and their friends and families. They offer information on all aspects of depression; a fantastic mentoring scheme; education programmes to help stamp out the stigma of depression and unwavering support to everyone who needs it. The team at Blurt helped me to understand that exercise is a useful way to manage my depression and that I should never feel embarrassed about having it. I truly believe that these guys save lives. So, please sponsor my swim and help me raise some money so they can continue their great work. To sponsor me, or to find out more information about Blurt, just click on the link below and I promise that this will be the first and only serious blog that I post......and thank you for your support! http://blurtitout.org/give/gill-thomas/

Hi Sis, you may need to wear a coat when you swim in Loch Ness as it is quit cold not like your pool.
