[UK-CONTEST] AFS-SSB ... 3As... G3TXF, G3WVG

>>> toilet stops

I held off the coffee in the morning since apparently that assists the body
to go to the toilet (there's a word for this but it escapes me) and instead
drank only a small J2O to keep my whistle and organic voice keyer fresh. It
worked and meant that I didn't need to go. First time I've ever managed this
for a four hour contest.

I'm always in awe of you blokes who can sit for four hours in single 
op contests and work  over 100 an hour with apparently no need of one 
or two toilet stops!!!

Maybe it's my age (just inside the "twilight zone" now") but those 
cups of tea and biscuits my dear wife brings me during contests only 
serve to lose me valuable points as I run from my basement shack up to 
the loo at least once an hour :-) What's the secret chaps... a tube 
and a plastic bag :-)  ?

Only 257 by the way .. I made the fatal mistake of leaving the run 
freq at 3pm for a toilet stop only to finds it taken by another G when 
I got back!
