Brilliant stuff. Ste Eddy won the sprint (on Siddlall Moor front playground area) but Chris and Irv has the other stuff nailed on. I remember Billy Lennard giving the trophy out after the darts final. The way Chris and Irv threw, you had to brace your knee onto the board to get the darts out. They were buried up to the flights!
Dave Eddy. I can clearly see your face now…well, mainly loose teeth and bloody gums and those ruined SP gloves.

CK and Irv yes but I would also put man boy Stephen Edwards on the podium at least!

Superstars was not tin pot at all. 2 days of intense sporting action just like the TV show but with all your mates. 10 points for a win 8 for second etc etc…. well done to the adults having the patience to organise.

Brilliant – absolutely brilliant i had forgotten what it was like to basically chase and never get close 2 IRV on two laps of the crimble shale!! There was also bike racing / table tennis / Pool / Darts and a sprint!

Also – no mobiles and very little cash…. just come home when it’s dark!! Late June that could be stretched to 11pm!
