Hi, I'm a newb!

Hi everyone, thought I'd say hi.
I've been interested in fencing for a while, but never did anything about it for years. Then realising how slack I've been recently I finally decided to do something and so joined up for classes at the uni near where I work.
So 2 lessons down and hopefully many years of fencing to go

Justin

Welcome to fencing.

You're now officially part of the crazy mob.

That all depends on whether you wear your plastron or not.

Welcome anyway.

Thank's for the welcome guys 3 Lessons down so far, going well, but need to improve my fitness So much fun though!

Boyd, I was going to ask which uni in Melb you went to, but after looking at the novice results for yesterday I'd say I don't need to?
