draliman on life

Here is my post for Share Your World, hosted by Di.

Have you ever been fishing?
Yes, quite a lot as a kid. I never caught anything, though. It was really more about being by the river.

Do you prefer to watch football, rugby, tennis or hockey on TV?
I guess out of all of those, tennis. Though Wimbledon is the only one I really watch, I like the grass and the whole atmosphere, with the crowd being so supportive of all the players.

Have you ever ice skated?
No. I’d quite like to try but not in front of loads of other people and I’m a bit worried I’d fall and break something. Same with skiing.

Did you enjoy sports at school?
My goodness, no, not in any way, shape or form. However, I was “fortunate” enough to have a condition with the bones in my feet while I was still growing so I got out of most of it. The only sport I enjoyed was rounders, which I always assumed came from baseball but it appears it was the other way around, with “Base-ball” referenced right back in 1744 and played back then in the south of England.
