as in the arm and the leg move forward at the same time?
I wouldn`t have a clue about the Genesis march, but yes - same side arm and leg together. Most abnormal!

But they cant allwalk normally the boys in Lamb on my year were particularly bad they bopped when they walked and they even manged to do that marching too. Mid A i remember used to do the somthing up you bottom march and Peele B's was soooooooooooo laid back!
and for those who dont know bopping is when they bounce slightly in their walk, its they way the put their feet down and they move one side of their body as they lift that foot up!

I think it's all to do with cost-cutting etc.

BTW the sports bras they sell in M&S say on the packet that they're tested by the Australian Sports Testing Association (or some such thing). No wonder we have stereotypes!!

Ah yes, I see. Why sports, particularly?
Thank you. As far as I know. Lost touch with my friend over the summer, every time I called her she was abroad, working, so I haven't seen her or the rabbit or the teenage children in a while...
