My training for "Dribbling Britain" in the Welsh mountains ended in hilarious fashion

A $4 Tier Special  

Two weeks ago I decided to get some good hiking training in just before my mate Andy's stag do. The stag cottage/barn was in remotest Mid Wales, not too far from my first straight line attempt. Why not take advantage of the big hills and great weather and get some ...

(For those of you who don't know, the parkrun is a weekly 5k running event held every Saturday morning at 9am in parks all over the country). We didn't know of each others existenc...

Reckon this is a pure coincidence?

For those confused: Bernardo Silva is a famous footballer, and I get a lot of comments from people saying I look like him. Personally I think if you take away the short brown hair and short beard, the similarities would be pretty dubious, but I'm just wondering if they picked him to do the geogue...
