Speicher tells me that she has been in training for a tug of war competition organised by a teacher friend, and is to be done against the 6th year boys team for charity, seeing as, beleive it or not, she is in fact last year's Regional Champion.
Apparently they can't wait for her to dig her heels in, get a really good grip, and gamely pull them off, one by one like a trooper, getting all wet and dirty in the process.
