Hi Andy. Thank you. We had a really enjoyable day. I like your style of coaching. I was scared at times but I had absolute faith in the way you had set up the ropes, so was able to overcome those fears. I now feel confident to tackle the In Pinn next month. I’ll let you know how we get on. Tommy absolutely loved it so I think we’ll be getting him a pair of shoes and a mat.
