Popping home at lunchtime enabled me to check a bit of transcribed Thones, Dominations MS and the news that Denver's prime use to his little brother was preventing his being molested in the showers (I paraphrase a bit). I see Peter as holding up his own on the sports front at prep school, bolstered by being good at cricket and otherwise happy to run about kicking things as much as your average 9 year old, but coming a cropper faced with a gang of hefty Eton adolescents who actually take the whole thing seriously, and before you know it he's been knocked down a couple of times, made some unpopular remarks, and is Flimsy Wimsey.
My sister is a very slight rugby player, so it can be done, but she is also tall, unconcerned about filth, and was pulling doors off their hinges aged four.
