Re: What are you reading tonight?
I have nothing against Prince Harry - In fact, I think the treatment he and his wife have received in the media is nothing short of diabolical. However, I give about as much of a shit about what he has to say about anything, as he does me. Same with his brother, or his Dad (whoever that is) Indeed....

If it helps I've seen him twice. Once at the London 02 for 'The Wall' which was simply magnificent. The last time was him alone in Hyde Park which was a selection of Floyd and Solo stuff.

Blood donations. I'll be as brief as I can. I have been a Blood Donor for some time now. I am proud to have donated over 30 times. Earlier last year I was diagnosed as having Exercise Induced Bronchial Constriction, a condition which made me cough violently during exercise. I was prescribed two type...

Re: The athletics/running thread
If you want me to put a training programme together, including proper warm up and cool down sessions, I'd be happy to. Back to basics. It'd help me too as I've just taken a Leader in Running Fitness course and I could use you two for practice. :mrgreen: Sounds good. Make it we three test-cases as M...

Re: Where are you going tonight?
Thursday I'm off to see a play. The Final Problem. Loosely based around the Sherlock Holmes story it's a narrative by Doctor Watson. Mrs GtE loves Murder Mysteries and especially Sherlock Holmes so I hope it's good. My daughter is a total Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie fan and Holmes is her favour...
