Ugh. Just walked through a massive spider's web. Don't care about spiders it's just that horrid feeling all over your face I hate!
Can't think of what to cook. So it might be beef burgers and chillied beans.
@potatolord signed up to another comp. English open in November. It's a Biggie![]()
Why do I do this to myself?![]()
Because you love it.
My back's rubbish at the moment, but i'm still going.
We had a new load of beginners last week. You don't appreciate the importance of skill until you fight a raw beginner.
It's not even skill- pacing is something you have to learn.
I find it a good time to practice things that I don't normally do with new people. But they're so unpredictable it's actually quite realistic as to what it's like having a scrap with someone who doesn't know anything.
We do striking as well and at one of the classes a newbie who had only ever done "street fighting" got well and truly humbled. But... He parked his ego and has become a really good sparring partner and is turning up and putting that work in.
Sorry to hear about your back. I'm like a plank mainly so I struggle sometimes against the fast flexible youths but I have old man/dad strength and experience so that always helps.
It was the chiro who wrecked my back
Same with me for any protest - I see a bunch of brainwashed muppets. Protest has zero impact.[Free speech] Am I the only one totally desensitised or insensitive to palestinian demonstrations? [/free speech].
2 for 1 cinema?
I just need someone to go with....
