Apparently I have really strong arms. My boxing instructor
told me that not many people, let alone women, can keep solidly boxing for 30
minutes without stopping or dying. Many a time I want to stop or fall on the
floor in a sweaty heap and scream ‘Uncle!’ Or ‘Aunt!’ Or ‘Leave me the hell alone!’
But I don’t. I’m not sure why. Possibly it’s sheer stamina or bloody minded determination
or maybe its like one of those nonsensical tests at school where Billy is travelling on one train wearing
a red sweater, Freddie is travelling in a car eating an ice-cream and Harry is
riding a bike wearing a baseball cap – which one will get to point A to B
fastest and claim the prize? None of them because Susie thought ‘Stuff the lot of
them, I’ll switch the signs around so they all go in different directions and
get lost and I’ll win.’
Susie probably had strong arms too.
