    Admitting that you have a problem is the first step to recovery.

    Pfft! I haven't touched a foil in years! I went through the 12 steps of Foilists Anonymous like Sherman through Georgia...

    Gosh... That was my first problem. I didn't know I can't fléche, so on my first competition I opened with a yellow card..

    That's a good start Nusy - if you're aiming for a red card!

    ...or even a black one...
