    Thanks, he did well as did the others from the club. Lots of medals and lots of great fights. One of my favourites fights was a Polish guy who was in his opponents closed guard and managed to bait the guard player into going for an arm bar but the Polish guy had a collar choke. It was so...

    Following in his big brothers footsteps. Torstein out on the mat today. 2 fights, first win on points, second win 9-0 up and then submitted the kid with a triangle choke. Gold medal at the BJJ Oslo Open 2026 in the +72kg category. As you can see he is already bigger than Haakon and is yet to...

    Drumming

    I would say most on here are either too old for Drum and Base Music. Or it didn't make it that far over the pond, getting more popular these days but it is definitely a UK thing. One of my friends at Uni used to workout and drum practice to Roni Size back in the 90/s. That guy you posted has...

    JRE

    He was also Canadian Special forces but generally doesn’t like to talk about it. Quite modest about it in fact. I recently listened to the latest Gaad Saad JRE and he schooled Joe in the facts Of living with oppression in the Middle East. He would know as a Jewish, Lebanese Arab.

    Pros and Cos of various friction hitches in the trees

    I used a ladder today. Wasn’t long enough and was bitchin’ that I should have used my throwline. We use these ones at a few co tractors over the years. Triple extension ladder that also convert to an A frame. Similar. https://www.zarges.com/en/products/skymaster-x

    That’s the one. I got three quarters through reading it and now it is in the house somewhere. I should dig it out and finish it.

    Nice. Thanks for the reply. The Haida? Are they the people that the logger felled their sacred tree as a protest to logging? He then disappeared and remains of his canoe found but never a body. Pete Mctree lent me a book about it a few years back now.

    34° Celsius is equal to 93.2° Fahrenheit

    Thing is with Norway. You can go to work in the morning and it might be just undr freezing or just above. So you wear wool undergarments. Then by 12 it can be close to 15c and you sweating your whatsits off. Then a few days later you leave the wools at home and it doesn’t get up past 7c. I...

    Official Guns Thread

    Been back to the range a couple of times to do my practice shots and large game test ready for this season. Had a bad back recently so shooting prone has not been the easiest. Only allowed to use a sling but no rest or bipod allowed. 5 shots in the vitals at 100m and it’s a pass. Might head...

    Sorry If I missed it. You mention totem trees and dugout canoe. I assume they are from the native tribes up there in Alaska? So getting back to the totem tree, is it just a generic term for a tree that would make a good totem pole or it it actually going to to a res or a tribe to be carved...

    Here in Norway we have had it in the low 20c’s for a couple of weeks. Pretty nice working temps but it will get hotter.

    Rico is a legend. Might only have been his second pro boxing fight and his first was 15 years ago or something. As I said he is a legend. One of the greatest Heavyweight kick-boxers to ever live. He is no mug and an absolute monster. Peter Fury trained him for 6 months to get him on the...

    Liam Harrison was involved in one of ONE’s bangers. Bear in mind that 3 knockdowns in a round is usually a TKO. Liam Harrison fought a very decorated Thai fighter about 4 years ago. Didn’t make it out of the 1st round 😜

    They get paid well. Liam Harrison, British guy who fought in ONE Championship said that he didn’t think it was a young man’s fight as they can reduce the lifespan of their careers. But if they are gonna do it at least pay them well.
