Dear Jon So no one wants rowing, eh! Mmmm. Is Bavarian Stein Host a bit like Haggis throwing? On the 1992 Australian Cricket Team's tour of Britain, WA Batsman Tom Moody scored very few runs, but when visiting Edinburgh set the New World Record for Haggis Throwing! Vice Captain Punter Ponting is apparently good at Bavarian Stein Hosting, and gives exhibitions at King's Cross Bars. best Hugh Tolhurst ----- Original Message ----- From: Jon Corelis <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2000 1:26 PM Subject: Olympian regrets > >From: "Hugh Tolhurst" <[log in to unmask]> > >Subject: OLYMPIC POEMS - 33 suggested poets & sports (re-posted) > > > >Dear List > > > >This is a preliminary allocation of poets > >to cover specific events at Sydney 2000. > >Preferably, we'd like a poem or epigram > >of about one page on each event. > > > > Thanks for including me in the invitation, but I'm afraid my talents are > insufficiently compatible with the matter to do it justice.
