Cartwheel, Cartwheel, Cartwheel. Yay!

My neighbours are in for a big surprise when I do my daily drills on them.

That is so cool! I feel your psychedness!

When my brother and I were told we were ready to order our GHB's a few years ago we were like kids in the candy shop.
While we were waiting for them to arrive, we were worse. Arriving for our lesson each week wondering if they would be there....It makes me chuckle everytime.
Good for you on your progression. Keep it up and you'll be playing them in no time!!!
