Happy Christmas to you all.

A friend of mine has 2 Maine coon mosters. They are massve fluffy things, apparently more like dogs in that they are happy lazing about. One of them decided to use me as it's bed for most of our visit. I don't like cats particularly but I quite like this one.

So sorry to hear your news, as others have said, glad you got back in time to see him.

I am really glad you made it, sorry about everything else.

A lot of good ones this time of year!

I am sorry to hear that.

And my Po-Tay-Toh

My Dad has taken our old kitchen table and chairs out of the attic and asked me to sell them, and very kindly has said I can keep the money. Having looked online, they seem to be anywhere from 110 for a table to 2000 for the table with 4 chairs. I have a table and 2 chairs. I had no idea they were e...

I had some on a pizza in Perth the other weekend, never seen that before and it was jolly tasty.

I have had a car or wto tha would have qualified but never bothered, will be interesting to see how it goes for you though.

Well I did a first proper ultra training run, only 11 miles, but trails, some inclines and a lot of mud. I have reduced catrilidge in my right hip and it is most dipleased with me being such a dick. I have been advised a strip of K tape will help so will try that, just need to build up as much muscl...

Insurance companies are dicks. Last house insurance was only viewable through a portal to see the whole amount which annoyed me. It only went up a pound or two a month so I saved hassle and stayed put but when you get the coubling and tripling quotations Ieven if they then offer a price match I won'...

I had a tongue stud years ago, not fancying a PA though! I have a Suunto 9, having had a 5 and a couple of Garmins prior to that. With the early Gramins I wore a citizen ecodrive or Jorg Gray and just poppedon the sports wtahc for sports but I stupidly left the ecodrive in a drawer and now it doesn'...

Yes, my wife is on various running groups and it was the fact it was being caled an "ultra ultra" that caused people to raise an eyebrow.

Eddie Izzard will be laughing his socks off.

Ascender I am doing Isaac's Tea Trail by Greener Miles. Should be challenging without being completely daft, like the Spine race and similar such events. We are starting slow and just building up miles over the coming weeks and months, and upping time on feet. I haven't the lung capacity since Covi...

I did the Aviemore triathlon a month or two back to get my shouldr working after the rotator cuff tear. did a run bike run round kielder a few years back as well so nothing long distance recently at all but my pal runs 100k and spine races etc and he is doing this one at my pace (thank goodness) wit...

After vascillating for the past couple of years and twice donig relay legs of our local Ultra as well as a few marrathon length multi disciplines I decided to do a full Ultra before turning 50 so next August I will attempt to run 60k. I know there is at least one super fit Ultra runner on her but a ...

I have skewed the poll, I said I had never been in one, but I justr remembered I was in a very short run in a Mercedes EQ something or other.

Both my parents are 85 and in pretty good health for it. THey have slowed down and are noticably older than a few years back but Dad can still drive and they still mange the garden and house between them. I am regularkly shown where paperwork etc is which is cheery. My wife's Father is having seriou...
