I’m OK with that, it’s nice to have a few cool things that are uniquely
British.

I remember a wheelbarrow display team that appeared on the box a few times
during the eighties, doing routines similar to the aerobatic displays of the
Red Arrows. I can’t remember what they were called, but a search for Red
Barrows found this lot, formed in 1996 (not exactly freestyle though):

I wish we’d done something like that when I was in the ATC.
