En-garde: Taking up fencing in later life
Pat Lynch took up fencing in his 60s after his daughter commented that he was vegetating in front of the television, says
‘I HAD given up trying to get my head around playing golf — I’m obviously a slow learner, it took me about 35 years. I was never going to hit a ball straight. And my daughter Sheena basically looked at me one day watching television and she said: ‘You can’t be doing this, you have to be doing something — you’re vegetating’.
