Hi. It’s nice to catch up with you once again and I hope you’ve been keeping well just like myself. I thought I would take the time to sit down and write this blog of mine before I head out for the evening. Training of late has always been regular and fairly intensive although this week I’m training a little lighter than usual as I am heading to Spain on Sunday to see my mum which is always a good thing. I wanted to spend some time throughout the weekend to do some writing to remember my truly amazing dad and everything he did not just for me but for others too, however as always with these th ..read more

Hi. As promised I thought I would take the opportunity before I head out for a Sunday morning run to catch up with you all. I’ve been thinking this morning about a family project to create a scrapbook about my dad’s life and my own writing project about my life and how martial arts helped me turn it around. That’s going to be called The Last of the Good Guys. “The last of the good guys” is what my drama teacher at school called me with a smile in my last lesson just before my GCSEs. I think I got a C in drama and did a lot better in English and English Literature as well as other subjects. My ..read more

Yes, I’m back y’all. As the god Rakim would say it’s been a long time. Well to be honest it’s been around a month since we caught up last and as always it’s good to find the time to sit down and write. It’s been a great week of training so far and I’m already looking forward to tomorrow night’s session. I’m training around five or six times a week which isn’t too shabby. Of course, with a bit of roadwork thrown in for good measure and currently being a sensible booze-free boy I look forward to dropping a little bit of weight and getting sharper and faster over the coming weeks. I made a consci ..read more

Hi. It’s nearly been a month since I sat down last to write and I think it’s something this year that I really need to get back to. It’s a natural bias of mine that I’ve inherited from my dad. When I was in Spain last Christmas me and mum sat down and went through a lot of the short stories he wrote and wanted to get published. This year we intend to find a publisher to make it happen. Speaking of Spain I’m pleased to be heading out to see my mum next week for a well-deserved short break. It’ll only be for the weekend but I’m hoping it’s going to be a lot warmer than the UK at present! I’ve ki ..read more

Hi. It´s good as always to catch up. I´m currently in Spain for Christmas until New Years Eve and it´s good to be able to say that all is well. I recently moved to a new flat on the other side of Bristol from my old place and as it was my first move in six years I have to say uprooting yourself and your life is never easy but hey the hard bit is over and it´s nice to be back at my new and old home I lived in way back in 2013 to around 2016. Walking around the flat was strange and it felt like it was almost pleased to see me. I won both my amateur Muay Thai area title and English K1 title when ..read more

Hi. It´s nice to catch up with you all once again and I hope all is well in your world, whatever your doing and wherever you are. I´m currently in Spain at my mum´s place writing this blog in warm but breezy weather. It´s 22 degrees here not bad for late November eh. And they say climate change is not real. Training this week has consisted of a bit of roadwork and I´ll be back at the gym from Tuesday onwards. I´m training 5 or 6 times a week again and my current goal is to improve my kicking guard. Over time I´d developed a bad habit of from time to time letting my hand connect with my leg as ..read more

“Once the storm is over you won´t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won´t ever be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won´t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm is all about” Haruki Murakami, “Kafka On The Shore” Hi. It’s nice to catch up with you all once again and although blogging at present may not happen as frequently as I’d like it’s good as always to find the time to write, despite having a tumultuous month with mental health I’m pleased to say as we approach the ..read more

Hi. It’s good to check in with you all. I could feel the slow subtle bite of procrastination setting in with this blog of mine so I’ve got tonight off training I thought I’d take the opportunity to catch up. Training has been good so far this week but then again it’s really not been bad at all of late. Despite it being a slightly shorter week training-wise as I’m off to Spain to see my mum on Sunday I’m looking forward to what’s ahead for the rest of it. I train regularly again these days (as I’ve mentioned before back to around five or six times a week) and it’s good to feel like I’m taking s ..read more

Hi. it’s good to catch up once again. It’s good as always to find the time to sit down and write this blog of mine and I intend to start blogging weekly again. Little by little I’m getting myself back on track and I think really that’s the most important thing. Today there were several people from my gym fighting at a local and very prestigious show in Bristol Noble Combat Championship. From looking at our WhatsApp group chat right now it seems we did well as usual. That’s to be expected. It’s great to see that Revolution Phuket (I knew them as Sitsongpeenong when I trained there way back when ..read more

Hi. It’s been an extended leave of absence but it’s nice to find the time to sit down and get this blog of mine back up to speed. Not writing for a month feels like I’ve been missing something that’s a part of who I am so let’s take it to the stage and tell it how it is in my world when it comes to Muay Thai and everything else in between. I’m currently waiting to get a professional opinion on the damage the police have done to my mental health following a series of data protection breaches that started in 2018 following a malicious prosecution that resulted in an unjust “assault PC” convictio ..read more
