When I was a teenager I was a really good windsurfer. I came third in a South Eastern Under 18 windsurfing competition once.
However, a succession of knee injuries put a stop that that (and football), I reckon I might have ended up pretty decent if I’d kept it up.
Yep, nailed it Urbzy, driving a car to a world class standard is absolutely achievable to anyone and everyone (provided they have the resources)
This is an interesting one on accounts of how you don’t necessrily have to be a technician to scale the highest peaks that Sports Entertainment has to offer.
probably harder to make yourself good at. The reflexes and speed of top amateurs would be harder to train for than the brute power of pros if you didn’t have the natural talent imo
it would be interesting to see how much training a 6 foot regular man would need to be able to last a round in a ring against a sub-lightweight world champion. I’m guessing the answer would be ‘lots’
i’ve always sided with my dad but because the only gaps in our general knowledge repertoire are penoid tv shows or ancient history (which my mam loves) we’d definitely lose.
Body shots would do it before anything to the head, I reckon. You get hold of Balonz, I’ll contact Roman Gonzalez and we’ll get something set up
Reckon we’d have had a very good chance of getting to the final but it’s such a lottery what you’re available topics will be at that stage, maybe we’ll do it one day.
Even if I had the technical ability, I’d lack the mental strength.
Monopoly!
Thinking of finding a tournament to enter after the amount of time I’ve spent playing it over the past few days. The prize money for the UK championship in 2015 was £20,000!
*£19,800 after income tax
Could be top three in the world at Hearthstone if I really wanted to, I reckon.
Seriously though. I was top of the class at school; I got straight As at A Level; I got a first at uni. But since then, I seem to have lost the ability to excel at anything. Maybe the education system sets us up to fail in that respect.
Maybe it’s more that success in things isn’t measured so tangibly once you leave education? You’re doing well from what I can tell pal, you have a lovely sounding family, just because nobody gives you a certificate for getting a GCSE in being-a-great-Dad doesn’t mean you’re not excelling at it 
Not golf in general, cause of the touch and pressure putts and that, but reckon I could become a top professional long driver in about 2 years
I’m fucking great with a three-wood mate and my short-game is complete balls so reckon you’re right there pal.
Sounds like he didn’t want it enough
