    I know. Fair play to Cram for saying what he thought on the matter and even the usually mild mannered Brendan Foster stuck the boot in.

    I have decided to take a leaf out the cycling team's book (and Ronnie O'Sullivan's) and "box my chimp" when I get back to running again. I will try it out when I am preparing for Wasdale next year and see how I get on

    No idea what 'boxing your chimp' will entail Alf

    And can I just say that I am now completely fed up with Nicky Campbell's (radio 5 live) effervesant gloating about Team GB's brilliantly brilliant brilliance and just how crap everyone else, other than the completely brilliant Team GB, is. Feeling proud is one thing but he has totally lost the plot

    I stopped listening to 5 Live when Nicky Campbell joined - can't stand him.

    What's 'boxing your chimp' Alf? Should we all be doing it or would some people be better off spanking their monkey?
