My son and I are watching Kabbadi on Sky. We have no idea of the rules or what's going on, but it's brilliant!
The Bradford-born star, who moved to Hull KR in 2013, was initially dropped by the Robins after allegations surfaced in July, but was later reinstated after he maintained his "total innocence". It is thought the charge relates to his interaction with two 14-year-old schoolgirls. http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull...ge-child-sex/story-28665251-detail/story.html
We thought that..... For a minute or two! Wife comes on earlier and says, "Oh yeah, Kabaddi, I played that and studied it a bit at college"
Yep, my response too. Studied it as part of her sports science degree. When she gets in from work tomorrow I'm going to reach out, touch her boobs and then wrestle her to the floor. When she beats me round the head, I'm going to say, "What! I thought you said you played kabaddi at college" * nice knowing you
The important thing is to keep chanting "Kabbadi, Kabbadi.." non stop while you're doing the above. Then you'll be fine.
Was reading up about the various staff at Southampton, and one of our UXX goalkeeping coaches is Vince Bartram. He played for Arsenal and Bournemouth amongst his clubs. But I believe he's also a relative of a former star goalkeeper for Charlton Athletic called Sam Bartram. That's relatively unimportant - I'm just telling you how I came across this little story I found. This is taken from his autobiography. Bartram was involved in a well reported incident when thick fog closed in on a game he was playing against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge: "Soon after the kick-off," he wrote in his autobiography, "The fog began to thicken rapidly at the far end, travelling past Vic Woodley in the Chelsea goal and rolling steadily towards me. The referee stopped the game, and then, as visibility became clearer, restarted it. We were on top at this time, and I saw fewer and fewer figures as we attacked steadily." The game went unusually silent but Sam remained at his post, peering into the thickening fog from the edge of the penalty area. And he wondered why the play was not coming his way. "After a long time," he wrote, "a figure loomed out of the curtain of fog in front of me. It was a policeman, and he gaped at me incredulously. "What on earth are you doing here?" he gasped. "The game was stopped a quarter of an hour ago. The field's completely empty".' I think that's brilliant.
All they have to do for me is... 1] Proper road test some normal cars because seeing super cars burning tyres all the time was making me yawn. 2] Lift the bonnet occasionally. Let me see what's there. 3] Road test some motorbikes and scooters like they used to. For the last few years of the previous Top Gear I found myself preferring a stint on a computer watching Jay Leno's Garage videos. Far more interesting. So get as far away from the previous TG iteration as possible.
Matt Leblanc is an excellent choice. Knows funny, knows cars. I may have let out a girlish scream of delight when I read about it.
Love LeBlanc in Episodes where he plays a naughtier version of himself. Think he will bring something to Top Gear.
