You quickly decide to gnaw your own arm off rather than risk waking her. Oh I’ve been there a few times.

This thread is officially in the General Section. Greyman is the man for a bit of controversy. Britain's big cats or a rash of lesbian tennis commentators, it's all in a day's controversy for Greyman. Come the next biblical flood, who would he save a floundering lesbian or a desperate big cat? Could take all 500ml of a dispensing bottle of benzyl benzoate to clear the rash on a big cat, and that stuff can grow hair on a billiard ball Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turned on the second womens semi final last night and the arena was mostly empty. Careful camera work only showed areas that had folk in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tennis is a bit like equestrian dressage and international rowing. Minority sports forced on us. More darts, amateur boxing, rugby and snooker needed... commentated on by ex pros who actually know what they are talking about would be good. Dominoes with a camera looking down on the players dominoes? Pigeon racing? Whippet racing ? These sports could take off if people were exposed to them.

ITV actually made a program called “It’s a dogs life at the Rising Sun” about whippet racing in 1970. My local club and the time I was heavily into the non-ped racing whippets. I managed to get an original video tape of it and made numerous DVD copies which I sent to friends here and abroad . Cheers. Edited July 12 by chartpolski Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One thing about Spain… all the above are part of the culture and legally protected (apart from darts, ruggers and snooker, these are introduced.. they do love pool though). However, generations change their priorities. Some continue the traditions (with legal, protected blessings) others choose to be complete tw@ts and try to stop things… doesn’t work that way here. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure if it was for part of this one, but an old boy I knew who used to run there was asked if he would talk on camera about the racing dogs, it was to take place in New York club where he did drink, but refused to sit in there with the dogs as he said the dogs were never welcome in there any other time, a couple of his dogs names I remember were Manpower and Sarah Marie, he used to talk a lot about his time with the dogs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
