Bob Piper has been a Labour Councillor for the Abbey
Ward in Sandwell, West Midlands, for nine years. He is a lifelong supporter of Aston Villa Football Club and a follower of Yorkshire County Cricket Club.
The views expressed here are mine in a personal capacity, not those of the Labour Party, Sandwell MBC, Aston Villa or Yorkshire County Cricket Club. Get it! Mine... just mine!
The Fat Man in the Bathtub has been wrunning for Sport Relief, with hilarious results. With a turn of pace that would put Martin Taylor to shame, he has now found that keeping up with him effortlessly is...
my Mrs , in her jeans, kinky boots and heavy coat trotting along beside me, with a big grin on her face and not suffering at all. Not to mention the daughter appearing from nowhere and legging it effortlessly ahead. In her diamante bloody slippers.
The training has been going for over a week and the strain is beginning to show... well worth following his training diary, believe me.
I'm told comrade Watson has also shed a stone as his missus weighs out his grub for him each day and choccy biscuits have been replaced by a delicate beetroot salad. Perhaps he'll also get the wrunning bug too.
