One can only imagine just how great and invincible Haystacks would've been in the UK if he hadn't had to be "beaten" by Daddy regularly, though.

No good I'm afraid.

Even after I joined the group the _link_ didn't work. And I'm having great difficulty browsing the photo galleries as the Yahoo server is very slow.

What a fantastic site! Thanks for the hard work, I will keep checking back.

I assume this is also the "legendary" Bill Clarke:

I expect this next photo is not Dale Preston but Steve Hammer (who also
apparently played the role in '94) as that is clearly not Clarke's original
costume (as worn by Preston) - for one thing, in that shot he's actually
wearing a proper, correctly-shaped Kendo mein and not a bloody air
vent! :

Here's a grab of King Kendo from the rumble. Couldn't get a good shot of the mask unfortunately, it came out blurred as he keeps moving - mostly to get away from the better wrestlers LOL.

I have updated the Haystacks site on my return from Norfolk. Some more screengrabs and a _link_s page.
