Boxing for breakfast

I was at the Priory School this morning looking at their boxing academy which is run in conjunction with the Boxing for Schools program.

The boys (and one girl) were on excellent form and were going through their training with enthusiasm and focus. I was assured that they were always as focused and it had nothing to do with me, the Mayor of Bromley or Frank Bruno being there.

Big Frank still generates a real buzz even though he has been away from competitive boxing for years. Indeed some of the kids might not have even been born when he was at the top of his game, but they were still very exited about meeting him.

Not me, I was being all cool and aloof as this photo shows.

I've tried watching the footy on my computer but as my monitor is a considerable size smaller than my TV I do have to say I prefer the TV as my method of watching football, and I've just brought the setanta channel and i'm very happy with it so far.
