Roy , did you retire in the kitchen ? Is it a fist or a sign of grabbing something cylindrical :D
That's what's known as a 'break out' area in modern office parlance Al, where you go to eat your lunch, yeah a kitchen :D. He's probably subconsciously pulling my entrails out for leaving them in the lurch.

I dread to think what comments my appearance would generate, so it's not being posted.

Thanks Geoff. I'm afraid I look a bit more grizzled close up though ;)

At my favourite cafe on the Leidseplein in A'dam. I didn't know I was being shot. Oh and by the way - there's a black pawn hidden behind the queen on F5 and it's white's move.
This is a great cafe: there are always people playing cards or backgammon or chess. Food is ok and the beer is good. I play seldom these days, more into bridge.

Its been old photos time here. My brother is about to send me all the old family albums to scan so that everyone can have a CD of them. They start when my parents got married in the thirties.
Not quite so old but old enough, this is me with the very first proper computer made!! I used to draw people's houses on the Mac and print them up cards and letterheads etc. Too easy these days, everyone can just scan in.
I reckon it must have been 1986 so I was 39 years young. I even had hair.
I'm getting more and more like this every day...

Lucky man. I regretted this one during the honeymoon. I drove us down onto the beach for a romantic interlude and the damn car got stuck in the sand with the tide coming in. Had to get a garage out to pull us out. I thought it was funny. Sadly my new bride didn't share my enthusiasm and it got even stickier thereafter. It took me another 25 years to get married again and fortunately, this time I have no regrets.

Very true. In my early twenties I was a (qualified) mason pavior and my job was laying concrete and stone, kerbs, blocks and slabs. Granite kerb weighs over 50 kilos per foot length and I used to lift, cart and lay metre lengths every day, amongst other hefty items. You get stronger and more used to it by the day and I was only 5'6" eleven stone. I got even stronger and broader as I got older too (that's what weight training and ten hours of judo a week does to you) :).

I'm not too bad Marco, about 18% body fat. I'm a weightlifter/powerlifter etc so not interested in low body fat etc but certainly not a fat blob! Just a naturally big lad (probably through 16 years of competitive rugby) and then 11 years of competitive weightlifting etc...
Still, as me father in law says, I'm better at blocking out light rather than letting it through :D

Aye I started off as a No.8 and developed into a lock forward... Fortunately I learned to tape my ears from a young age so I'm still pretty :D
Lifting hasn't caused me too many issues thank god. Hurt my shoulder in 2013 and still having a few niggles but seeing an Osteo and a sports physio has done my a world of good!
But decided having this year off competing would be beneficial just to recover properly otherwise I'll mash myself good and proper and end up needing surgery (which I really don't want)!
I do a lot of coaching as well for lads looking to get involved in power and strongman comps so that keeps me busy and in perfect form as I'm teaching techniques so need to be able to show I'm actually able to 'do' and not just teach!
Good to put something back into the community Dan. well done... ive lost 2 inches in height due to my joints compressing.

But I love it so if the lads show commitment I stop charging after their 1st 6 sessions and just take it from there

Bev has not shown a photo so my summing up is as follows
Likes HIFI and music 10 out of 10
Likes to get her leg over 11 out of 10 ( biker )
Does it matter what the looks are like :hmm:----------:nono:
:D
