KATE'S SWIM ON FEB 1 2009 "GREEN BARN DUCK POND"

Kate Digweed got the short end of a bet with george...

Kate explained the unfortunate situation; "I tried to catch a mink at the shoot in a trap and failed miserably. George said he could catch a mink within two weeks without baiting the trap - I said impossible ... anyway, I then stupidly went on to say that IF he caught a mink within two weeks then I would swim "Green Barn Duck Pond" which us one of our large duck ponds which has had ducks on it for a long time and as you can imagine is full of .. well, put it this way .. NOT mineral water!!!! It is one foot water, 20 foot slime !!!"

George caught a mink within 12 hours!!

So guess what ... Now Kate is having to swim the duck pond!!! The big swim date is February 1st 2009 - whatever the weather!

As so many people want to come and watch Kate die of some god awful disease in the water ... We thought we might as well make a few quid for charity - all for a good cause...

Each Ticket will be sold for £5 at the gate of the swim.

Look forward to seeing all there...
