He's on a programme about the Narcos in S. America. It's very good. Last night, he was talking to Pablo Escobar's enforcer. It was like watching two former enemy Battle of Britain veterans talking about their dogfights. Both acknowledged they had regrets, but just did what they had to do for the jobs they had chosen.
Went to see foxy in Jersey a couple of years ago, it was ok nothing more, defo wouldn't bother seeing ant.

My missus has read all of their books, she reckons Ant's latest book 'the Fear Bubble' is better than his first. To me, Ant comes across as a grade A bell end.
Watched his climb up Everest couple years back, getting stroppy with his sherpa, horrible man.

Actually, he's quite a nice bloke.
Fair enough, maybe it's just his social media persona.

I couldn't believe that lass with one hand even took on the ravine rope task let alone made a decent fist of it, though that's probs not the best phrase.
Someone really should have given her a hand.
Fair play to her for making a decent fist of it.

Fatima Whitbread is the only one I recognise, Rudy has got lovely hair, I wonder if he's ever walked passed a mirror and not checked himself out.
