burningnun’s amasing day out

Postby burningnun on Mon Jul 14, 2008 10:19 am

Went to Bournemouth yesterday for the BPC British.

The Good

- Met a couple of powerlifters on the train down. We talked about training, how silly Curt is online, and briefly touched on the ESN -
- Met my internet friends and internet acquaintances who all turned out to be cool.
- Awesome atmosphere.
- Lots of record attempts including 455.5 from Bolton which was close-ish.
- Glenn Ross – living legend.

The Bad

- Squat and bench aren’t really good spectator sports because of the big metal things and army of spotters that obscure the lifter. Deadlift, snatch and C&J obviously don’t suffer from this.
- Fletch didn’t win.

The Ugly

- Curt. But really, he seems like a nice guy in real life, especially for a chav. He’s quiet, which is surprising considering online he doesn’t know when or how to STFU. I’m not sure if he knew who I was. He is also big, gear or not.

Nice once mate, sounds like a good trip. Would have liked to have made it myself but time is a limited resource at the mo.

Why are Chavs like slinkies? They have no real use but it's great to watch one fall down a flight of stairs.

You did meet me. I was the guy in the green Mr Men top, hanging around with you basically all day lol. You and your black vest were too intimidating for me to introduce myself. Sorry :D

Yeah. Well, sort of. You were sitting behind me during the squatting and then Ash showed up. I think John came later with JC, not sure though. You really don't remember? We even had a little conversation lol.
