A fascinating sport to watch from the security of a Youtube screen, though.<br /><br />Brian, that pic of you is excellent.

From what I've heard, it was the sort of like the wild west, with ramshackle equipment and settings.<br />Not sure I would have volunteered to try back then! Kudos to you for taking the challenge. <br />Namowal (Jennifer Bourne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00384500508934864421noreply@blogger.com
