... the fluffiest of bunnies
Die Hard 2
Still my favourite of the John McClane movies. Perhaps starting to stretch the line a bit in terms of reality, but a well paced, well plotted movie.
4.5 yipppe kai yays out of 5 motherf***ers ..
(loses 0.5 for the windsor plane crash scene which is just shit)

@MN5 ha ha guilty as charged but in my minds eye I could just see our man @MajorRage thinking, yeah boi it's on!
Cheeky for him. A death sentence for me!!
Interesting. Wouldn’t say I’ve thought about it that much, but this is actually quite a milestone. Running a half for the hell of it - shows how far I have come.
Shame I’m only half way there!
The bit that hurts the most is that realistically it's as close as we'll ever get to winning a cricket world cup.
Nothing but grace here. In fact, most poms actually think it should be a tied match with joint winners.
Literally zero rubbing my nose in it.
That was unexpected.
Monday, 6.5km, 39 mins, 6:02 p/km
Wednesday, 7.7km, 42 mins, 5:28 pp/km
Saturday, 21.1km, 1:58:30, 5:37 p/km.
Wowee what a week. Monday was weird, I was caught up in some school shit so went for a run around there and got completely lost. So a bit of standing around trying to figure out where the hell I was and then a fucked up GPS signal at one point made a right hash of things. Anyway, the final numbers it returned felt about right. Nice run on Wednesday, then the big one on Saturday. I was aiming for the 20k but thought, if I'm going to do that, why not just do a half? So I did! As per always, struggled on the 11-15k part but pushed through. Only had one km >6 min pace but the rest were remarkably consistent. Best part was at the end of it I felt pretty good. Not completely knackered (not far from it tho) and joints were ok. As per above, the cadence overall was pretty good - although I probably need to up that a bit. Anyway, pretty stoked with myself.
This week ... not really sure to be honest. I fly out to Greece on Wednesday for a week, and certainly hope to continue running. I may do some circuits / classes instead - will just see how it goes. Probably not a bad time for a running break, but given the nature of the holiday, some exercise will be required to avoid returning as a proper proper fat bastard.

Saw this today in the Sydney Morning Herald. And I couldn't agree more:
If only you Kiwi slobs would behave more like our cricketing heroes, society would be a far better place.
After the cricket yesterday and the colossal hangover I have today, it was going to take something special to put a smile on my face. And you've done it. Well played.
Without a word of a lie, if I see Nassar Hussein today I will punch him hard.
What a complete fluffybunny.
@SynicBast said in CWC Final - Black Caps v England:
Warning: sour grapes time:
England did not win this world cup, it was awarded to them. That's my response from now on whenever some fluffybunny says England won the 2019 CWC.
That will be my stance today at work.
To be honest, calling it work today is prob not an accurate reflection.
I don’t even remember going to bed.
I accept we didn’t win the World Cup.
I don’t accept losing the match.
Unfortunately, that’s the rules we, and England, signed up to.
Hurts,life.
