So far everyone I know who's tried it is a Bobbing Bobcat.

No sheep were harmed in the making of this thread.

0.061 was my flukey best for one brave wooley mammals, but otherwise I was distinctly average bobcat-ish... ;D

(I wonder if there's a Welshman just off the screen...


...why else would they run? ;) ;D ;D ;D)

I won't mention velcro gloves...

Hi CD.
Mine is simmilar in consistentcy at 1am and no sleep in 19 hours. All but one within a thousandth or two. Slightly fast than yours as I dont drink ;) But still it is amazing the differance tiredness makes. From averaging .125 it jumps to .200 with times of:
.186
.188
.193
.245
.193

And thats why I try not to drive after 10 at night. ;)
