Parkour

One of the beauties of not working is not having to worry about how late you go to sleep. So, last night I ended up watching a documentary called 'Jumping Britain' which was all about this new(ish) craze called 'Parkour'.

Parkour originated in France and seems to have picked up s steady following in the UK. Now, imagine mentalist freestyle skating/bmx, jumping between buildings, over walls, down stairs and through gaps - now imagine it without any bike or skates: that's Parkour. The site, Urban Freeflow, has a tonne of pictures, info and videos on it. Check it out, it's pretty impressive! Or do a google for 'parkour' and see what wonders you find.
