What a guy.

A summary of his year seems to be ooh he's injured ooh he can't train ooh he's not competing ooh he might give it a go ooh he just won the World Championship 100m ooh he just won the World Championship 200m as well.

It was good to watch. I didn't see the 200 but like so many people, I hoped he would beat the American, Gatlin. A drugs cheat. Banned, not once but twice.

Seems he's unhappy of being reminded of it too.

"His second ban, initially for eight years later halved to four, was blamed on testosterone he claimed was rubbed into his buttocks by a masseur with a grudge"?

Oh my. I had no idea you could catch it like that.

I have a jar I bought last month guaranteeing to remove unsightly chest hair and it works a treat[1], but I've noticed a significant progressive enlargement in that area since the first application. I'd assumed it was temporary but, if Mr Gatlin's right, I may have problems.







[1]: ...though according to the label, I now find testosterone isn't actually among the ingredients - I may have been badly advised by the shop assistant at Boots.

No bra yet made would stretch the length of my back and join up in the middle. I would need to attach spider bungees to the straps. I am not, how may I put this, svelte.

The word "profound" has been used occasionally, to describe my speaking style. Adjectivally. As a modifier to "boredom", admittedly, but I think it carries overtones of depth.
