I respect Fury for how open he is about his mental health. For someone from his traveller background to open up about suicide, anxiety, OCD, bipolar etc and talk about them freely and in depth is a massive thing and has probably helped a helluva lot of people. It’s a great message when one of the ha...

I watched that yesterday! Firstly it’s an amazing run to casually do sub-3 hour for a laugh. Secondly he is utterly mental for not having trained further than 10miles in the Crocs

It feels like a few years since gin was supposed to be replaced by rum as the new spirit of choice but nobody seems to have told the supermarkets; it’s still easy to get a wide selection of gins and harder to find a good choice of rums. It has been happening slowly, Gordon's sales by volume in the ...

Very impressive from Usyk. He's a proper boxer. I don't know much about boxing, however that sounds spot on. Fury looks like a person who was born with a freakishly exceptional talent for dodging punches and hitting people, almost like he has a sixth sense. On the other hand, Usyk looked like someo...

Only Jaguarrrrrrrrrrrrr owners allowed

I agree about the hangover with rum. I don’t drink much these days and feel quite sensitive to what gives me a banging head. A half decent rum leaves me feeling surprisingly headache-free the following day. For example I smashed a bottle of red leg with a friend then went to the pub for a beer and f...

I was expecting those to be outside of my tax bracket however appear not to be and readily available too, will try them!

While we’re ticking off different alcoholic drinks and given that rum has officially replaced gin as the spirit of the moment, here’s my recommendations - all based around golden or spiced rums. Havana Club especial was my go-to golden rum for several years. Smooth, warm and easy to drink with a cub...

Yup Usyk got it, definitely the right decision. How Fury stayed upright in round 9 after that left hook is a miracle.

That’s got to go to Usyk, surely?

I’m sure it’ll be available somewhere slightly dodgy online. There’s usually a bunch of feeds incoming around on Twitch, Instagram or TikTok live

Anyone else watching it tonight?

Full fat, high quality greek yoghurt is uniquely brilliant. I would always splash on the Fage stuff whenever I could justify it.

I've hit pedestrians a few times when cycling and they always came off worse than I did, and it's always the same that they step off the kerb without looking. Pedestrians are definitely more vulnerable. If it's clear I was cycling with due care and attention, then I shouldn't face any charges or res...

/r/ukbike on Reddit is up in arms about this. So much 'whataboutism' about the deaths caused by motorists, and even a couple of comments that they need "more protection from pedestrians who step out into the road". LOL. Twats. I was wondering where the outraged cyclists were ranting about...

Possible progress on the Bentley. A very nice chap contacted me through eBay to say the knocking noise is likely to be the bolts securing the top mounts. They’re stretch bolts and if you re-use them (which I have, several times now :oops: ) they bottom out and appear to be tight, but aren’t actuall...

I'm always meaning to do more fermentation, was it an easy recipe?

A lot of content like this is engagement bait (IE completely fake), don't fall for it.

Oh I know. But like all made up things, there is a pinch of truth in it

As the Russian idiom goes, “in every joke there’s a grain of joke”

It's weird how on these diet challenges that loads of people basically want me to do whatever diet is going to make me suffer the most
