Rugby - love the game but never played it.
Cricket - decent medium fast bowler, played in the Cardiff midweek league.
Athletics - quite fast. Represented Cardiff schools in the long jump. Loved the triple jump too. Anything 800m and beyond I was rubbish.
Table tennis and pool - quite good at both but not exceptional
Golf - off 16 but due to lack of transport, seldom played more than once a week, so little chance of reducing handicap.
Bowls - loved the game. Most of my friends and colleagues in BT used to play it in the 80's. Won our inaugural league but as soon as I started to wear glasses I never won it again !
Parascending - would have enjoyed it but my nuts got caught in the harness. Probably the most uncomfortable 15 minutes of my life !
Tennis and Badminton - quite liked both but never played competitively
Hiking - I've been promising my nephew that we'll do the Pen y fan walk soon. Hopefully this summer.
Caving and potholing - no chance
Abseiling - I'd need to be anaesthetised first.
Gym - never been interested
