Mini me

I mentioned in a comment yesterday that I used to be weirdly bendy. I'm not double-jointed (apart from in my hands) but was always extremely flexible... an advantage when I did gymnastics. The side splits (on the beam!) was my pièce de résistance.

Love this photo of me as I look confident and in control, which usually wasn't the case! The balance beam is pretty terrifying. Unless you've been on one it's hard to understand how ridiculously narrow and high they are!

The floor was always my favourite "apparatus"... nothing to fall off and there was music :-D
