Right, so, had a fight just over a month ago. I keep meaning to write about it, after all even though I don’t blog anywhere as much as I used to, it’s still quite a major thing to do. Had a meeting with my boss on the 22nd of July and when I got back… Continue reading The fight

Weekend Plans
I think this says it all: Someone dropped out of a fight on this show last Wednesday so I asked if I could take it over. My instructor and the show promoter agreed and last Thursday I got it confirmed that I would be fighting with just over a week’s notice. A week’s intense training… Continue reading Weekend Plans

At the end people were awarded stripes and belts by Victor Estima, our head instructor.… Continue reading Belt Up

Although I had a bike it only got used once or twice a month. However change was in the air. In January 2005 I… Continue reading 5 years on
Delayed Segue
So, 2010 then. Far too busy to go for a long description of what’s been happening in the new year, but I’d say the main points are these: New years resolution: fight, with all that it entails including training and keeping an eye on the weight. I’m looking at getting back down to 84 –… Continue reading Delayed Segue
