Hmm. This from the man who mocked the dressage then got into the sj and i think watched charlotte dujardin today?

Maybe he is a 'lazier' non competitive sport watcher than you and is thus your ideal mate?

p.s. i thought the dressage was even sillier when they started playing music! nuts. however, because we won it is now my favourite sport.

Twigs! A house near us needing total refurb inc central heating was for sale earlier this year, probate for £340, not sure what it sold for.

It now has central heating, a flat roof ground floor extension about 5mx3m and wood flooring/new carpets throughout. Spend of about 40k I guess.

So asking price now is...£525k?!

(And to think we were thinking of buying it, adding an extension and a loft bedroom for 70k and thinking it would sell for about 470...)

The 200m was the best race I have ever seen, beating the 100m hands down & the Jamaicans got 1,2 & 3. Brilliant.

Have a go at it, a sport where for all its demands, you do get to sit down. .

Edit , i always prefer to work to music, its a bit like sychronised swimming though.....its physically demanding but 'sport ' v art for dressage to music i s harder to argue.
