Last night I went curling at a work function. It was a lot of fun and I got to know more people on the extended project team. I had gone curling once before many years ago. It was at the Weston Golf and Country Club and we had a great lesson to start with. She went over how to sweep, how to throw and how to score. Since we were almost all beginners she only taught us the basics which was enough. We created teams of 3 (because 18 is not divisible by 4). It meant we had only one sweeper each, but we got more chances to throw the rocks this way. Anyway, I am still not convinved that sweeping does anything, except to keep the rest of the team busy :)

I threw one really good rock that knocked the other team out and gave us three points. However, all my other rocks tended to knock our own rocks out more than the other teams. I wouldn't mind playing again, but I don't know of other curling rinks close to us and the season just ended.
