  • Just a trial

    AIPT Course.jpgJust want to see if it's possible for me to still post a thread on here. Well it looks like I'm able to post a new thread, but how long does it last ?

        I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.

            Bob, is that John (Jock) Phillip 3rd from right centre row? Looks very like him.

                    Spot on there Ian, great instructor old Jim, halfway through our course he had to go on some display so we ended up with Bob Gelder who was the Army Fencing Champ. Another great guy no airs or graces just got on with the job !

                        Had to read your post twice there, Bob. thought it said, 'Bob Geldof' I couldn't really imagine him as the Army Fencing champ.
