Cheered me up. He flew towards adversity.

Poll: Town's most cultured left foot ever?

You don't see the likes of Eddie or Eric The Eel anymore due to the Olympics now having a minimum standard for competitors unless they are their nation's only representative. Probably a good thing but it does take some of the fun out of it.

Yep. Just not very far! 😆

Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness.

British record though!

Must say I took little to no interest at the time, but seeing the back story changed my mind - he spent a year in hospital as a child (crock knees) and was told by many docs. to never do any sport, take up reading instead. No money or support behind him apart from his Mum, & a dad who mocked his ambitions.

Yeah. It's a great story and a great film.
