[BD] More Ultimate in the Guardian

[Sheppard, Mungo]

It would have been a whole lot more positive were it not for the
accompanying picture (in the mag, not online) of what is best described
as a beach chav playing with a kiddies toy. 
But hey, at least he looked like he was having fun ;o)

Hi from Frankfurt,

What with all the fuss a couple of weeks ago about the glib passing
reference to what goes on in British parks, I'm surprised that nobody
mentioned that there was  a (slightly) longer, more positive article
about Ultimate in Saturday's Life & Style section (or at least the
online version at
http://lifeandhealth.guardian.co.uk/wellbeing/story/0,,2282570,00.html).

It's basically comparing beach volleyball with "frisbee" and - although
they're talking about regular 7 on 7 Ultimate rather than the beach
variety that might have been a better comparison - it's not a bad
summing up.

Does anyone know the Lisa Buckingham who wrote it, and whether she's on
good terms with Barney Ronay who wrote the other piece...?

See you on the field!
Wayne
