Crikey Tom. According to the Iliad I have a voice 'equivalent to that of 50 men'. I do have a big gob, that's for sure. You might say I was Blessed; I even have a bit of a beard at the moment (though nowhere near as volumous as Our Brian).
The voice will be sorely tested this Sunday when it's put to heralding 146 JDRF runners, some of whom will be out there long after the bunting and mile markers come down. By the the time we get to that stage I'll be screaming increasingly hoarse encouragement to Uncle Tom Cobleigh and All. Hmm ... I wonder if my old yelling partner will be joining me this year?
Sometimes I think it would be a lot easier just to run the bloody thing 
Good man, for attending to your annual duty. On Sunday morning I will be doing something I suspect few people will have managed -- watching two marathons simultaneously. One live, one televised.
