Marshalling, we all do it. It's something we have to do and try to enjoy.
Personally i try my damn hardest to marshall quickly and be alert at all times.
However Last night at Faversham i was marshalling the A finals.
Nothing to bad about that, the funny thing is i was stood there saying to my good lady how you need to be on the ball and marshall well at race meetings (in that kind of cocky "i know what i'm doing" kinda way) when Neil Gavin turned his car on a rope in front of me. So off i dive like a mad man, grab the car and flip it over..................
So much so that it flips right back on to its roof!
Bugger! in my dopey attempt to rectify my mistake i fell over onto my knees!. I reached out accross the racing line for the car again, only to get in the way of ED Kerry and someones Pred X11 (i think it was young lewis,) causing a pile up. With the latter thwacking my hand with a painfull thud.
Sorry chaps!!!!
It must have looked bloody funny from the outside, but my hand is a tad sore today. D'OH! D'OH! D'OH
