Rather bizarrely, I found myself spending a couple of hours in the company of Jonas Scheuermann over a beer and the second half of the Chelsea game on TV in my local as he stopped off on his bike ride home. I took the opportunity to stress the importance of doing the double. And what a...

Surely the (top of) Preston Drove stop? But you’re right, should be named Fiveways.

10yrs ago, this was pasted outside the Park View pub at the top corner of Preston Park. I suspect that one or two people on this thread may well have watched or played in this game.

This has appeared in my FB feed a couple of times over the last few days 🤷‍♂️

Last day of holiday and the clouds have come back but it’s still knocking on around 30°C

Might as well post to the thread that I started! Hotel Janna e Sole, Budoni, Sardinia And there’s an Albion top on the table opposite me, so I best introduce myself!

Deleted. I was wrong in what I saw.

Not received my myAlbion+ package yet, but having read the thread by @Frutos , I thought I’d better get in there quick and start this one for the double (towel & snood). Not expecting much activity on here until the “Have you turned on your central heating yet?” thread gets going!

They’re not too shabby at hockey. Both India and Spain.

I spent 6yrs unbeaten at 400m in the Brighton, Hove & Portslade schools events between 1981-1987. Was trained by former 800m Olympic semi-finalist and once European 880yds record holder local lad Chris Carter (The Running Policeman!). Biggest regret was not breaking 50 seconds (50.3s)

Obviously you’ve not been watching the fencing when anyone French has been on the piste.

I’ll be there in 2 weeks time on an all inclusive With the adult family (dad, mum & 18 & 20yr old). It’s going to be relaxing, not partying. I hope it’s going to be better than the Trip Advisor reviews that Mrs Blinkers is feeding me because it ain’t cheap. I’ll report back anything relevant...

They were booing anyone who beat one of their fencers. It was more micro than that; they were booing every point against one of their fencers. Bad sportspersonship.

Which is exactly why I’ve swapped to EuroSport/Discovery+. Yes they too have their own bunch of nauseating individuals but less so than the Beeb.

Sorry, mate, that seat’s taken!

It depends. Saber is explosive. Foil is graceful. Epee is extremely tactical. I assume you’re on about the Women’s epee final, where they deliberately tried to sort of fence but not fence (it’s called ’passitivity’) in order to force a single point winner takes all 1 minute scenario. Or, you...

Sometimes, it can get a bit passionate! Georgian (World ranked No1) sabre fencer, who the Egyptian eliminated earlier in the day, completely lost it. He was well out of order and highly disrespectful to the referee...

Closest I’ve been to a 1. There was only 1 other word available for a 2. ⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
