Curling

I've curled four times this week and feeling it. Won 2 lost 2, including today and Monday at the Peak in Stirling. Won the 2 we played at East Kilbride, probably because that's my home rink and I'm used to the ice.
As you can see the Peak was very busy today and probably usually is. It's also where the female olympic team practised before flying out to Sochi. After the game today a local player asked me how I had liked the ice - apparently the ice-man had spent hours working on it, creating a "big swing" so that the olympians could have some worthwhile practice before they left.
This could have contributed to our losing, but thoroughly enjoyed the game, nevertheless.
