This is the kind of story I like. I knew the name but never knew what she'd achieved and how. Lauren Price vs Jessica McCaskill: Welsh boxer ready for title chance - BBC Sport
What a set of achievements. Massive respect to her. While they're still building the numbers involved, I do find women's boxing is showing others what 'sport' is actually about. They have some excellent role models, and the fights are usually sporting and entertaining, with a lot of respect being shown. Thanks for the heads up. As I read it, it's showing live on BBC2 Wales at 9pm tomorrow.
A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband is not in bed. She puts on her robe and goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee. ☕️ 'What's the matter, dear' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night The husband looks up from his coffee, 'It's the 20th Anniversary of the day we met'. She can't believe he has remembered and starts to tear up. The husband continues, 'Do you remember 20 years ago when we started dating, I was 18 and you were only 16,' he says solemnly. Once again, the wife is touched to tears. 'Yes, I do' she replies. The husband pauses The words were not coming easily. 'Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car' 'Yes, I remember' said the wife, lowering herself into the chair beside him. The husband continued. 'Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, "Either you marry my daughter or I will send you to prison for 20 years' 'I remember that, too' she replied softly. He wiped another tear from his cheek and said "I would have gotten out today."
