What a man, what a mightly fine man!       Canadian Matt blames his Garmin for a 1.22/100m split yesterday. Snoopy has pulled out the fins and word on the street he pushed Jon all the way today on the Express train.     My favourite day of the week. Friday. Blocky and...

Wednesday 8th March – a day to celebrate women, and what women want – and if you haven’t seen the film of the same name, starring our own “Love Songs” – you should!  Not only is it a brilliant movie with the necessary elements of a compelling story, laughter and tears and cringe moments; it...
