Had loads of fun, but -man_, do I ache. I warmed up first, but between the lunges and furious sweeping, you really do end up working up a sweat. Am in the process of drawing a hot bath, where I shall marinate until my muscles stop throbbing.
Ben- I have two words of advice before your first lesson: "stretch" and "out". :)
For those considering trying the game for the first time; don't be too put out by my moaning; I know this type of ache, and it's the "feel stronger afterwards" ache. It really is quite a simple game to pick up, and if you can kneel without tipping over, you can play this game and enjoy yourself. Several curling virgins at the event were amazed at how quick they picked it up and how much fun it was.
