Well guess what? I passed my grading! I'm now an official 7th Kup (Green stripe) in WT style Taekwondo.

Bring on the next one in September.

Is it just me or are the Office staff plaiin incompetent? A letter's just come from TV Licensing, my license still hasn't been paid even though I passed the details to the Office at least 3 weeks ago, because they do everything (allegedly) for the whole of the Flats!

If I get done for having no TV license and it's their fault, I will be seriously hacked off.

This would be for green belt which is 6th Kup, after that there's blue tag, then blue, then blue with a red tag, red belt, red with a black tag, then the Holy Grail, black belt.

Probably fairly long.

It's took me just over a year to get to this level.

Yep, although at my age (late 40s) it's difficult to keep up with all the youngsters.

It's not like before when juniors and seniors were in seperate classes.
