New Challenge for Team Curl One Out

Team members of Curl One Out are to embark on a slightly different challenge on the 2^nd October. They are to take part in the Bupa Great Edinburgh 10k run in aid of charity.

Speaking on his return from a warm weather training camp in America Lead Kenny Edwards said ‘Our team is fully committed and prepared fitness wise for the season ahead. We thought whilst doing this we may be able to raise in the region of £500 for charity’. One of the nominated charities is the Scottish Brachial Plexus injury service, information about the service can be found here: http://www.brachialplexus.scot.nhs.uk/ 

3^rd Scott Robertson said ‘The service has played a big part in getting Kenny fit and prepared for the forthcoming season so we feel we need to repay the favour some way and this was it’.

We plan to run for a second charity, but we are still finalising things at our team HQ.

Ask Kenny...

'Dear Kenny........'

After Curloneout HQ received literally hundreds of letters and fan mail Team Curloneout's newest signing and all round good egg Kenny Edwards answers your questions. 


Question from Logan Gray of Balfron: 


"Kenny, Ive Always wanted to be able to play an out -turn like you.  Can you please give me some advice so i can improve"


Kenny says: "Hey Logan, thanks for your question.  The key to a perfect out turn delivery is you need to caress it like a lady, treat it with respect and don't release your rocks too soon! Good curling."


Question from Ross Paterson of Glasgow:


"After having a disappointing season last year being barked at from hammy.  How could you help me improve my confidence so i can stand up for myself ? "


Kenny says : "Ross, Self confidence has never been an issue for an international superstar like me.  Firstly i would start by improving your appearance as first impressions are made with the eye.  Try wearing mans clothes rather than baby gap tank tops.  Remember my motto : Rock out with the .... out"


Finally a Question from Richard Woods from Lockerbie: 


" Wayne Rooney has recently returned from a hair transplant.  I was considering similar cosmetic surgery myself, what are your views on cosmetic surgery?"


Kenny Says : "Having frequented many hospitals and underwent many operations including Four skin grafts i would advise against it.  To  pull off obvious cosmetic surgery you have to be a world class superstar like Wayne, therefor i am sure you will agree its not for you.  Kind regards. "

Security Team Hired

The Names Bond....

Due to the current situation in the United Kingdom team Curloneout have hired the services of a top drawer security team. Because of the high risk of looting and personal attacks at team HQ the team decided to employ Keith MacLennan Security Services to protect them during the season.  Skip Duncan Gracie told us "We were amazed at the massive turn out for Kenny Edwards' press conference and frankly the possibility of an insanely jealous competetor or lunatic fan attacking the team was too much of a risk to take.  Therefor we decided it would be prudent to employ a security team to protect us and keep an eye on team HQ.  A key factor in employing Keith was the fact Kenny would be unable to fend of a left side attack from an attacker or spurned lover due to the misfortune of being right arm dependent."  Gracie added " Since Kenny's horrendous injury received through falling off his Pogo stick,  I have always been fearful of a savage attack on him.  Scott (Robertson) suggested we employ someone to watch over him due to the fact he was only playing lead and would be regularly brushed aside."  

No Invite... NO ENTRY !!

Chisel faced, Thirty year old MacLennan  from Perth has been high protector to the stars for a long and successful career and his high profile clients include the likes of Jimmy Saville, Carol Smilie and up until last week The Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson.  Schooled at Eton, MacLennan pursued a military career and eventually graduated from Sandhurst military academy and became Commanding officer of Dads Army before moving into private security.  Mr Maclennan this afternoon said " I am delighted to have taken up the position as head of security.  The team made me an offer i couldn't refuse and i took up the position immediately.  I have already trained the teams chauffeurs in evasive driving and installed 360 degree surveillance cameras at team HQ.  I also Have a crack team of ex elite forces providing 24Hr protection and on ice security for the team.  These special agents will unfortunately have to remain anonymous so there operational effectiveness is not compromised."  


The message going out to all would be attackers this season is.......

 'Watch out! Keithys  about!'
