Thanks for the icing info. It makes sense now. Maybe my brothers aren't such good explainers eh? Wink

Some of my earliest memories of curling were of watching my Dad curl in his annual truck driver bonspiel. I can still smell the cigars in the air, and hear the bagpipes! Nod We kids weren't allowed upstairs at the bar, but I'm pretty sure it was a busy spot. Wink Whiskey
