I feel I must apologise for the conduct of my shorts during the war…
Link em up I could do with some jazzy shorts
firing up vinted

Oops. Stayed out until 4am on a school night.
Gave mine to the builder today with his coffee in it and he asked me what it meant. Just lied and said I didn’t know, it was from the charity shop cos I couldn’t face trying to explain it.
Whats that, 4th Dan?
Kinda. With BJJ its a lot slower to promote than karate or tae kwon do so whereas karate you can grade up belts every few months and get a black belt in 2 years BJJ typically takes 10+ years. There are white, blue, purple, brown and black belts and you get stripes to acknowledge progress in each belt before you move up to the next one, roughly every 6 months. This means that the next big milestone for me will be getting my brown belt some time in the next 6 months hopefully. Lots of gyms do it randomly too so theres not a formal schedule to keep it interesting
That must be quite dojo dependant. Im doing my first dan Shotokai assessments now - I’m six years in and definitely one of the faster ones to go through the grades…
Haha imagine launching into that explanation, fuck you’d get the ultimate funny look
Maybe he’ll Google it and end up here…
He’d recognised the Caramac reference and has seen my board in the hallway (raised eyebrows and walked past it) but no way I was regaling a story third hand that ties the two together. We’re already poles apart on the worksite banter.
Break the wrist and walk away.
I actually have a broken wrist now.
Eighth time but first one not from a slam…
Might be time to give Rex a wide berth ![]()
And pass up the chance to win the heart of Starla?
Still makes me smile all these years later ![]()
Think anybody wants a round house kick to the face while I’m wearing these bad boys!?
Possible stoker - might pull the trigger on this auction as this was my first ever board in about 1992. It’s a literal piece of shit, but I’ve never seen one in this good a condition before.
