Zone Olympics

We really didn't do very well last night. The fourth event in the Zone Olympics was a kurling competition. Yes, that IS kurling with a "k", not a "c": kurling, unlike curling, takes place indoors and the "stones", with ball-bearing-like runners, are slid along a sports hall floor. Otherwise, there would appear to be little difference. Our team of six, split into three pairs, managed to come joint last out of seven. The trouble was that the Brighton players were quite unable to judge the correct strength with which to propel the stones and usually managed to go straight over the target and hit the back wall. Despite this dismal performance (which was, in truth, mirrored by other teams), Brighton Lions have managed to hold onto their place at the top of the league table, although their lead has now been reduced to just two points with three more events to go. The full table is produced in the May issue of Jungle Jottings.
