    Baltimore Bridge

    I can never remember which way is port or starboard. Is there a handy way of remembering it?

    Bacon butties - with or without butter?

    How can you not like brioche buns?! :eek: They are lovely with a burger, the sweetness contrasts nicely with the savoury burger.

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    On Saturday I completed my longest-ever run to date,16 miles. https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/embed/14432952593 I did seem to struggle with this run. The alerts (eating and drinking) on the watch weren't enabled therefore, I had to attempt to keep track of myself and lost track. My...

    How often do you use a pen or pencil to write?

    The only time I use a pen is to write birthday cards. Pencils are used rarely. I can't remember the last time I used one.

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    I've used the Enertor insoles before, and while they offered comfort, didn't offer the arch support I needed. My bike fitter recommended for my needs to use the arch support over comfort.

    Delta Force: Hawk Ops

    Those were the days! It was a groundbreaking game for me, as well mate. Edit: Having watched the trailers, it all feels very generic. :(

    So err, What’s Happened to the Princess of Wales?

    This new story is a lot of noise about Photoshopping an image, yet no one bats an eyelid regarding alterations to fashion photography of models, etc!

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    Can't say I know the answer to that one. That is a sensible budget for a watch to start with, no point spending the £430 I did on my 265. You could always use Strava on your phone and pay for the subscription (allows maps). That is another option for you. Completed my 15-mile long run today...

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    Most of the Garmin Forerunner watches use their own maps, are you set on Google Maps particularly? But yes, routes built in Garmin will give you turn notifications. Do you have a budget in mind? What about buying something second hand, and see if you stick at the running?

    She could be employed by Red Bull Racing Limited, who are registered in the UK. Would the photos still break data protection laws?

    Motorsport Off Topic Thread

    That's a good point. What happens if she leaked that data? That would warrant a suspension. For example, if the leak came from her, it could have broken data protection laws.

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    I'm not looking forward to the hill at mile 17. My running mates said it was brutal that far into the course. For the 18-mile long run, I plan to get the train into Belfast (the station is that bump above the end marker) and run past the 10,15,20,25 markers section of the course to get a feel...

    Platypus' Beginners Guide to Running

    I could have gone flatter, the other route I'd chosen was from Carrick to Holywood, along the M2, skirt, around Titanic Belfast and the Airport, but only 61 meters of elevation. As a comparison, the actual Marathon route is 258 meters over the full course. In my opinion, there is no point...

    The OCUK Whisky (and Whiskey) review thread

    Rubbery/Car tyre smoke is just what I'm looking for in a whisky :rolleyes: I can see why people prefer the Port Charlotte over it.
