Bus, a small duck pond might prove the hypothesis. Large quantities of uneaten bread and litter may have some bearing on the result also.

12 miles at sub 8 (just) for me today. Looks like a wet day, so a day off work. Will have to cram Monday's jobs on to Sunday on account of the BUPA 10k.

SG, looks like I'll be travelling from Pinner with wife and lad. He's doing an 'A' level maths exam today. Anything less than an 'A' grade he'll regard as a fail. Work experience is on the horizon. What work do those who specialize in Maths and Physics do? I'm not too sure myself.

Nice session Dean! Hurts just reading it.

Visions of Ric holding 2 separate parts of a dispatched Canada Goose too haha

I didn't hold on to the respective parts for long.

At a later date the same thing occured with another lad involved. The poor guy was set up by some others who told him to apply maximum power; and he happened to be a body builder.

The shock of the outcome defined the expression, 'freaked out!'.

Sat opposite a guy who had three blackberries on the go at once. The explanation was that one was for work, one for family and the other was for, er, other things.

He seemed distracted.

Canada geese. I know them well.

Back in my fishing days, when I almost lived on Tring Resevoirs I had the unenviable task of dispatching one of these creatures when it had suffered a mal-functioning preen gland.

The signs are a completely water logged goose. No water proofing at all. My companions at the time suggested giving its neck a tug.

In respect to those of a squeamish disposition, I'll draw a veil over the outcome of this course of action. In mitigation all I can say is that when the adrenaline is at optimum levels, one can sometimes under estimate one's own strength.

Thought the post was going to be about whether or not you had to be on Facebook, Twitter or something similar.

No-one bothers with this stuff in our house, not even the 16 year; the only lad his age who declares he has no use of a phone, especially as there's 'A' levels to be worked on.

Its like living with Adrian Mole sometimes.

As a side issue. What would losing your iphones be like? would it be for some of you a bit like losing the use of, hmm, everything?
