On close contextual study, it appears that this may be one of the earliest recorded instances of a knee/groin impasse in mythology. No wonder they had to resort to weird shit if neither could get a good, clean shot at goal.
 

 
BTW, did I send Maryte the travellers version of Elgin Marbles? I can't remember which I had to hand at the time. If your answer to this is WTF? then I didn't.

Can you put a word in? I just want this one bit here:



Our living room just seems empty without a Centaur-Lapith battle in it. I'll gladly make a plaster cast to send off to the Greeks so that can retrofit the Parthenon. They'll never know the difference!

Oi! What right do you have to demand the return to Athens of our ill-gotten gains, plundered from their original, deeply historic setting by our arrogant bastard of self-serving aristocratic wanker?

Unless you mean "return to Austin" in which case I know just the feller. Nobby Clarke, lovely bloke, specialises in "antiquities", set you up with something special guv. On my word. Be seeing him later, down the old rubadub. Put in a word for yer, if you like.....
