  • Was consistently in the top 15 or 20 in my age group (obstacle course racing) and was gearing up to aim for a podium finish but got rear ended on the way home from work one day in November so in recovery for a back Injury. Hoping I can get back to it again by the end of the year to but gotta hurry up and wait.

    Started growing my own veg a year or two ago so getting steadily better at that and enjoying the process. (this one kinda skirts the line between just being self sufficient and a hobby though so make of it what you will)

    Similar to others, pretty adequate at plenty of other stuff, the two above just immediately come to mind




  • Buckin Billy Ray - interesting videos about cutting trees down and servicing chainsaws. A little bit unchained (excuse the pun) in a wholesome way as he seems to randomly intersperse his videos with positive affirmations like ‘be kind’ ‘love your friends’ which is kind of wholesome

    Way out west - an older English guy living in the West of Ireland making things like a railway for transporting garlic

    I did a thing - a hilariously unhinged aussie bloke

    James Hoffman - for coffee. And hames joffman also

    Karl Rock - travels around India/Pakistan exploring the places

    Mike okay - travels to really off the beaten track places like Iraq.

    Maximus ironthumper - many videos, the project kermit series is him rebuilding a land rover defender from scratch

    Still it - distilling and making spirits



  • Reading a book in English class. Had a high school English teacher that was out sick half the time and spent literally all of the remaining time they were actually in to teach us, reading through the assigned novel for the curriculum. (barely 20% of the curriculum overall) I was/am an avid reader so had the novel finished on my own in about a week and a half and got bored of listening to the terrible accents and voices being attempted by the teacher so Brought in my own book from the library and hid that in the cover of the prescribed novel to read. Teacher caught me and sent a letter home to my parents. Absolute nonsense!
