precisely my thoughts

tho here's some background to bridge from james beattie's blog in 2003. yep 2003. so maybe not that shocking.

Having a few days off gave us a chance to just chill out a bit, although I have to admit that our competitive instincts did reveal its ugly nasty head at one point.

A few of us trooped over to Wayne Bridge's house one afternoon, where he has got the mother of slot car racing circuits.

We're not just talking a figure of eight, we're talking like 10 kits joined together in a 50metre circuit.

The rules are quite simple; the winner stays on until he's beaten.

Surprise, surprise, Bridgey was on just about all the time. He was virtually unbeatable, and I suspect that he spends a fair amount of time practising.


Bridgey makes sure his trigger-finger is protected

I wouldn't be surprised if he reports in injured on our first day back at training with a blister on his trigger finger.

But Bridgey is now officially the Michael Schumacher of Scalextric.
