lanarkshire lad Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Fog has never ever stopped me, or others in our Fed from chucking up in training tosses. Especially if the sun is trying in the least to break through.Just be asking for trouble training in fog.I think he must be at the kidding.
