How to Keep Fit

We don't know how it started. Presumably Alan Rowlands, who (with Mick Cossey) is off to Japan with the Rugby colts team shortly, decided it would be a good way to keep fit, and Bernie Thompson said, "If you can do it so can I." At any rate, as the town clock struck one last Saturday, Terry Patterson exploded a paper bag and away went Alan and Bernie, bound for Makaraka, pushing wheelbarrows loaded respectively with John Dawson and Norm Maybe.

Norm took along some refreshment just in case, and was still holding when the finish line was reached, almost exactly one hour later.
