After a lot of planning and discussion I have decided that the 48 hour sitting in the car not leaving for anything marathon will start on the 20Th of August until the 22ND of August. I will start on Friday at 6.00pm and finish on Sunday at 6.00pm.

So far I have decided to take in with me a sleeping bag, my laptop, iPod and a video camera to record what I am doing. If you can think of anything else I could take please post a comment.

Last night I tried to make the shell of my boat and it didn't go very well. When I was trying to shape it I accidentally lit it on fire so now I don't have a shell for my boat. Having spent most of my money on the shell I can't buy anything else that I will need. So after some amount of thinking I have decided that it would be impossible for me to make my boat and make it work since I can't make the shell. After about 3 episodes of top gear and an episode of the IT crowd I have decided to do something else. That something else is going to be staying inside my car for 48hrs. I will tackle the task over one weekend. I will not be able to leave at anytime and I will be recording the entire thing from a camera mounted on the window.

Hi my names Ben and after thinking about what to do I have finally come up with the idea to make a remote controlled boat out of anything I can find. My main goal is to make a remote controlled boat, but if i can make the boat then I will try and make it the remote controlled boat and beat 20 Km/h. I will only be buying the battery and engine parts for my boat anything else I will have to get for free. If I beat my target of 20 km then I will try and beat 50 km/h.
Wish me luck!
