Old Blue injured at Birdman event

Post by Rex »

A horrible episode for Holly Walsh (Leigh Hunt B 1992-99) – I hope she recovers well:

Personally, I hope Holly makes a swift recovery.

One has to wonder though, at the sense of indulging in what could be referered to as a 'dangerous sport' !

I am sorry about Holly's injury, hope she recovers soon.

HOWEVER ---- I was not, particularly, surprised, to learn that the Elf and Insanity Brigade are becoming interested.
This is an activity, which is undertaken by people, voluntarily, whether in their "Rightr mind" or not.
They are not "Employees", they are not the "Unsuspecting Public", they are not "Innocent Bystanders"

THEREFORE --- Why the Blue Blazes are they interfering ?

I Imagine that the "Youth" of this Country, are being groomed to avoid any possible activity, which may involve Excitement, Challenge, or even a mad event, which affords pleasure to Tourists in their area ----- in other words WIMPS !!


Rant over !

Surely not NTN? You are perfectly correct, of course.

i believe that Holly is making a swift recovery... although filmed some time ago, she was on last week's 'Would I lie to you?' on BBC1...
