I'm having some beer, watching baseball, just made some delicious ass steak and am making some rice and corn, tomatoes, red onion mixture with some guacamole and sour cream to go along with it. Should be delicious.
Why does everyone think I'm fighty?

I like boxing, and did some training at a gym where Chris Eubank (former world champion) used to go. I have fast hands, but I never sparred against another person, never really fancied it. I just enjoyed the fitness aspect of it, not the punching other people part

Basically this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamplona

Although the winters could be colder, these winters would be more ideal: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalwhinnie

I like the cold, but only to a certain extent

I f**ken hate hand washing, especially when you wash something and you find that damn stubborn spot and you have to do it again.
Nice, I'll keep that in mind when I clean it tomorrow, thanks for the tip.

Yeah, honestly that frustrates the **** out of me. I sometimes just give up and I'm just like **** it I'll clean it more later or tomorrow lol.

Lol, I only asked because a lot of times people who watch boxing also box themselves.

And nice! I've sparred against other people before, I won a few times and got my ass kicked a few times lol (mostly when I was a beginner). The fitness aspect of it was my main thing also and the fact that it's really fun to release some frustration lol.

Just one thing to keep in mind with the foil trick, little bits can get stuck to the grate so always go over it again with a lemon or preferably with the grates hot. But otherwise yeah it works real good, better than all those fancy cleaning wipes and stuff.

I boxed for 6 years with the Navy, and for 4 or 5 years before that.
Don't really do too much now, other than a bit of sparring and bag work. One of the guys I work with is ex Navy, and a boxer, so we have some decent sessions. I work on an RAF base, so can use all their facilities, including gym, boxing gym etc.

Too cold winter lows and cool summer nights, I already asked Razza how his preferences are a long time ago and he told me how is his ideal climate, that Pamplona is the most similar but it would be great if the winter lows were -1°C or so. -5°C is too much tho.
