See You On The Pitch

Tommy recently received a genuine Irish hurley, brought back from Ireland by Noreen. He has taken practice time very seriously, even planning how he will slip the hurley to the future arrival for two-man drills (don't read into that, I still don't know).

Well executed moves, Tommy. Should be very effective when facing your opponent. (I give the hurley three months...before is elevated to the status of 'priceless Irish artifact' and hung high the bedroom wall.)
Gotta love that Tarantella!
