N FOR NATAION What does the French word natation mean in English?
 The act of swimming.

The earliest known use of the noun natation is in the mid 1500s. OED's earliest evidence for natation is from 1542, in the writing of Andrew Borde, physician and author. natation is a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: Latin natātiōn-, natātiō.

Kevin , did you just read my mind???
and this is absolutely true.

Just ten minutes ago I finished "trimming" this overgrown bush, as there was little room left on the balcony!! I thought it would be a good photo.
(But you beat me to it!)

A reminder how the local darts league attracted Teams from Arillas, Ag.Steph and Afionas.
Probably 10 years plus ago now

Karl,
Sadly no "local" League. It is organised by a Sidari/Acharavi group but, last Winter, a team was entered via Beach Kostas. I turned down an invite to play because matches rarely commence before 9pm with a draw for the singles. Get drawn out last and you have a long wait.
Food is suplied after all singles games and then it's 3 pairs games.
You are looking at a 1am/2am finish. Not for me.
and.... with ony 5 Teams entered last Winter with 2 of those struggling to make up 6 players rumours say this Winter is possibly a no-no.

This was the last Team to win our local league before it disbanded.
Interesting to know how many "Night Owl Team" faces you recognise.
