I think it woul be better over or onto something, especially for novices we have a huge peice of kit made just for car squat suppose over the yoke would be good for the stones. we have around 3 lad up here and 6 in orkney and then try and get some folk up from south who are just starting out | ||

Sounds good man, but when we came up it was blazing sunshine all day  Pier/harbour venue is cracking, but maybe indoor is a bit safer eh  I'll ask folk at the unit over the next week or so, and see if anyone else is game. All I've got on is Severn Valley comp on 18th July, so would be a bonus if it doesn't clash with that. | ||

Would it still be ok for me to enter this, or would you reap sweet revenge for the "Sorry Neil, but you're too strong to do the Unit20 comp..."?? | ||
