It's Cock. No joke man, Garry Cock.
Also, I don't like to complain, but my second name is Cuninghame, odd spelling I know.

I think he was meaning for his training... at least I hope he was
it might be but i think they have plenty of time to give it a try and see if they can do it, as i have informed the orkney based lad who is tell the ones interested what the events are and he seem to think they will get the stone to the platform with practice.
plus we dont want to make it to easy

LOL cool, sounds like a good event
Just bear in mind how disheartening it may be to a novice though to see the 1st stone at 6ft? Depends how good your novices are I suppose

this is it but i will be measuring the frame on monday so that i will give you actual heights for each bit.

if it's 60" it's 5ft eh, and starting at 90? 90 to 5ft still challenging, but should be doable by all, unless there are some 'vertically challenged' people there. I remember Paul Suggit was flying, and then you caught him on the stones Neil, coz he struggled with the high platforms, and you took the win... funny that eh... 
RIGGED!!

Only messing with ya buddy! Aye, reckon if he'd gone into stones a bit more 'cautiously' he would have had a shot, no reason a smallish dude like him shouldn't be able to chuck them up like

Pity neither of them did the Scottish this year, was expecting both to do some damage. How come Paul or Dave didn't do the qualifiers? When I spoke to Paul at Dumfries he was all set to nail the open this year.
with apul he's working all the time doing homers and dave tore the muscles in the side of his back in january, so he'll be there next year with me and paul and one other
