She can also lower her testosterone and race in female or she can race a different distance.

If a Male was to test as XX then it doesn’t matter as they have no advantage over men. The whole point of the separation is to allow women to be able to compete, if they’re constantly beaten by men…[Read more]

I suppose they could cut to the studio, but would probably require showing the game with a few seconds delay.

And anyway, English footballers don’t lack for passion, drive and guts. If they could win just by trying harder they would; it’s the skill, guile and composure they’re lacking.

It wasn’t much more expensive than the ones on Ebay that you’ve probably got to drive miles to collect.

It works perfectly well and gives good all round exercise. I didn’t want to spend a lot of money as I hadn’t used one before and knew that before long it would be collecting the dust…[Read more]

We moved in together. We were both working fulltime. After a few weeks I raised the issue of cleaning – as in I was doing far more than he was.

I have no idea whether that is the case or not, although it does sound plausible but I do think that we should be very careful about what we eat and what has happened to the food before it gets to us.

You might find that rolling your foot over a bottle of water which has been frozen should relieve the pain.

There are lots of stretches you can do, the most commonly recommended one is to stand on the edge of a step and lower the heel down, stretching out the sole and calf.

Very helpful at 1am, and 25 miles away from home.
