We don't know how it happened either…
A long time ago (actually my first office job) I had a manager who used swearing as punctuation. She did a presentation to our IT contractors when they were doing design work to replace a key system, and was unsurprisingly asked not to swear by senior managers. She made it all the way to the...
As the professional shit-stirrer who started all these book club shenanigans, D. H. Laurence Baldwin (not pictured) has finally done something useful with his evil genius and produced a totally relevant and insightful book review. Enjoy!

We are not the champions Our last Club Challenge for April made it temporarily acceptable to come out and say "I want to ride my bicycle". Yes, the hotly anticipated Queen Run saw Do-Badders performing acts of madness, ticking off references to Queen during a run. The brief: - Find / do as many...
Nikki Love is a BBRC club member and certified Do-Badder, so much so that she has her own podcast episode about running around Ireland (yes, there's a podcast 🙄, and it's ep. 174) and in the last few days she has kicked off another immense challenge: 100 marathons in 100 days. Nikki has a message...
