"was a fast day though" - does this just mean winston had consumed extra coffee before operating the Rollapaluza Atomic Timing Units(tm)?

21.69 secs, Desi.

Could have been faster if it wasn't for the beers and large kebab the night before! Totally ruined the t-shirt I was wearing with chilli sauce.

The rigs were on a hard concrete floor rather than a stage which I thinked also helped. Thanks for letting me have umpteen goes, Caspar! Shame I got slower each time, but I did stay under 22 secs for each one.

interesting point about the surface....I set my fastest time on the wobbly Horseshoe stage though!

I wasn't there....I was entertaining the office workers at tower hamlets HQ, E14....Caspar had the beautiful Jos and the all-conquering Nhatt to work with....!

Horses for courses I suppose then! Stages are definitely needed at big events though, even with the one at Raphapaluza you could still hardly see 'cos it was so packed!

I will also have a bash at getting into team A. However, it seems that I am actually getting slower! Still with 4 places up for grabs - Am I right about this? - We should have a good chance..

hippy, would it help you to go faster if we filled a paddling pool with water and put it next to the rollers?
