Blue Peter lumberjacks...

[Gaynor]

Any other parents out there prepared to admit they were whatching Blue Peter this morning? They were taking part in the Alaskan Lumberjack comp. Man...Those guys are awesome!!! They were climbing those poles in, like, seconds making it look really easy, then just sliding all the way down on the strop. Mental.

I haven't climbed on spikes since I was at college and it was the first of many times that year that I wished I'd enroled on the hairdressing course. Silly business.

P.S. If you wanna pretend you saw it on something else, that's fine...
