We used to have a mini pool/snooker table too, but it just got in the way.

They were proper athletes and some of the most refined torsos I’ve seen in person. Whilst not in the same league as the sub 48kg freestyle wrestling league of toned upper body, they aren’t exactly in the dressage/golf/darts bracket of participants

TROSaracen 26 Jul 10:06am, 26 Jul 2024 28,111 posts	0 TROSaracen The track cycling would certainly have the most confusing ‘what the fucking hell’s going on’ event of the Olympics. I’d also love to be the Durney in the Keirin, but just throttle it and go for the win rather than pulling aside….
