Hi Folks
Just letting you know, Region 24 here in the UK has a new RM. He is Darrell Temple, formerly of Region 12 in Perth.

He will be taking over from Sensei Gamal Saleh who is leaving to replace Paul O'Donnell of Region 2 in Manchester. He is leaving for "unspecified reasons"

This is good news for all the Birmingham students, not just those in R24.

As soon as I get myself some wheels, I'm going to get myself along to one of his seminars. I'll let you know what it's like.

Tom.

Ive known Darrell for a few years.
He's very enthusiastic - although gkr to the hilt.
Expect lots of sparring and hopefully a morale boost for the region.

I wish I could tell publically what happened on the bucks night

Thats where Darrell is, I was an sdc at the same time as Darrell was, he is a really nice bloke, he used to go alright in kata at the tournaments here in Perth.Say Hi to him for me when you do meet him.

Can I quiz him about it?

And, more importantly, would he say?...........

You could try

*Tom remembers the bit about "expect lots of sparring", and decides not to push his luck*

Lets not refer back to that night shall we

Snow is cool....makes cool noises when u walk on it.....people make funny noises when you hit them with it....you save on fuel when you slide on it....and slide....and then your car makes a loud noise when it finally hits something.

Big hi from the UK!

Great to hear from you!
Good to see you've picked up the obligatory English practice of complaining about the weather - although if I was freezing my proverbials off I'd probably do the same .

Welcome aboard!

Hi Shroud,
Will get along to one of your dojos in the new year. Just have to get hold of a dojo list from somewhere....
And welcome aboard!

aboard Shroud

look forward to hearing more from you.

by the way, don't get too friendly with the tombat, I hear he is a bad influence! ( what am i saying?)
