    From the link, he was quite accomplished. A very good choice given that the Olympics are upon us.

    Impressive monument - I'd not heard of sculling before reading this.

      It's not a term in common usage these days but I only learnt about it during the Sydney Olympics in 2000.

    The yellow flowers on the lawn seem to be nature's tribute, Jim.
