What's the name of that piece of music?

Is it flight of the Bumblebee? You know it, it’s usually played when someone is doing something very quickly in gardening or home improvement shows. It goes diddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddlediddle very quickly… Aaaaaanyway, that’s what I feel the soundtrack to the last couple of days of my life should be.

Putting things in the tank

The below is an open address to anyone who competes, or harbours some desire to compete for our team in the future. I had a little word with someone for coming off the mats with a knock last night. The lad in question is a good lad, and I almost feel sorry that he has … Continue reading →
