Since Motorcyclejousting has become the 'in' sport downunder,many other sports have fallen by the wayside.
Sheepdipping ,yabbiegrabbing and gumbootchucking have suffered a huge downturn in popularity.
One of the most gracefull of sports to my mind is the gentle art of 'Dolphin racing'
A bloodless sport unless of course the jockey falls and becomes involved in a 'shark incident',but on the whole a colourful ,exciting wholesome family sport.
One where mum ,dad and the kids can spend a day on the water with a picnic basket watching these enjoyable creatures race.
It takes me back to a time that was less rushed,less...throwaway.
'Lets not lose that time'
Support your local dolphin jockey club and donate to 'The Tuna for Dolphins Fund' at an aquarium near you.
