I think a few if not all of the commitee have been promoted to 7th now - i knew Dave had.

Crikey they must be well in their fifties now

is it me or do peaple who get really good at their chosen art that they have no life out side it.most of the instructors i know have broken up with partners because they spend so much time do it.and lot of them now see (or have done) one of their students.i use to train every other night(but most weeks it would be most nights coming up to a grading).i would miss out on so much with my friends

Shirt lifters then. :eek: ....................... more Brucie Leigh than Bruce Lee

:sleep:

Dave Oliver, Ron Sergiew, Kenny Walton and Paul Donnelly are all 7th Degree now. I think there may be more but these are the guys who are better known within ITF circles.

:luxhello: Its my class again tonight, can't wait :D

Crusty foot in the face anyone......... :D

Morning Lou, no Andy this morning?:lol1: :wonder:

Who is Andy :confused: I confused :D

Morning RMA26 :D

Morning Lou:thumb: - had to dash off on Friday night to the pub

Good weekend?:wonder:

Friday night was a flop, Saturday was much better :D

How was yours?

Poor

Fri - Pub, Sat - Cinema (Crank) & Sunday - laid on my bed all day and watched TV/DVD's

I trust your weekend involved alcohol?

Ooo what DVDs you watch? I watched Kdulthood (think that how you spell it :wonder: ) and that film with Johnny Knoxville in.

I had alittle bit of alcohol :D

I watched

The Last Castle:thumb: & Layer Cake:thumb:

Johnny Knoxville - The Ringer?

Sadly, Got alot on this morning...........might have to work:( today

Layer Cake is really good, not seen the other, what is it about?

Yeah The Ringer, thats the one :thumb:

I've not got much on today thank god, but got car MOT at 12. Hope she passes :(

Didn't think much to The Ringer TBH - with exception to Katherine Heigl being in it (Knoxville's love interest)

There are some funny bits, but these are few & far between TBH

Last Castle is about an Army prison camp, James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano) plays the evil Gov & Robert Redfern plays an old Sergeant who all the prisoners all look upto, they build a wall inside the prison & band together & Gandolfini no like so he bulldozes it down, he also tries to get Redfern sectioned - not complicated, just lots more about the film - V Good

Better crack on, back ASAP

Have fun!

Yep must admit I wasn't that impressed with The Ringer, surprised they got away with some TBH.

Will look out for Last Castle on NTL interactive then :thumb:

I'm bored :(

I'm Mark, please to meet you:lol1: :thumb:

Last Castle is one of those good, old films

This is what i thought, to be the best meant giving up a lot and yep i knew many instructors/fighters who were either split up/divorced or were always in the doghouse with her indoors. being the best fighter or instructor normally involves training outside the Dojang.

I never met a really good fighter at the top of his game who only treained a couple of days a week with the club. It was normally 4-6 days a week. which then puts any social life or family life on hold.

I was told a lot of the TAGB committe ran at least 2-3 clubs a week which meant at least 2 days for each club in the evenings plus Saturday mornings. but on top of that for them to retain their fitness levels and TKD levels of skill they trained during the daytime 3-5 days a week.

Life - What life?:cuckoo:

Isnt that called dogging over here?

Another great night and I didn't sweat as much this time :thumb:

Doing roundhouses (think that is what they are called :wonder: ) are great :D

What is dogging :wonder:

Hectic do you know what dogging is:wonder:
