Wasn't following it, but how did my two favourites fare?


Incidentally, a supplementary question -
DARTS - Sport? Pastime?? or just Lifestyle Choice???

Ahh, that old chestnut.

Darts is a game that requires certain physical attributes and skills. It is, therefore, a sport. Just because the physical attributes don't require the body of Adonis doesn't make it less of a sport.

The beauty of darts is that almost anyone, of any age, can play it.

Only very few can play it well.

Darts is officially a sport. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/darts/4378929.stm

As they have two governing bodies they aren't allowed in the Olympics.

True story
