8671/21590My legs were pretty shaky after yesterday's tennis marathon, but somehow we managed a set of singles this morning, before my defeated opponent could go no further. I then had to dash through town to get my annual GP blood test (because as I've noted, they can't use any of the 20 or so blood tests I've had this year already) and then picked up a couple of bags of groceries at the supermar Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Richard Herring  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Like Sam Beckett in Quantum Leap (though it could equally have been something created by the guy who wrote Waiting For Godot), I hoped that each completed year would be my leap home.”
Richard Herring, The Problem with Men: When is International Men’s Day?

“[...] it's part of what humour is about: finding the light side of tragedy; being able to laugh in the face of life's horrors. Even when we are powerless, it gives us the illusion of power.”
Richard Herring, Can I Have My Ball Back? - A Memoir of Masculinity, Mortality and My Right Testicle

“I refuse to believe that you cannot be both compassionate and strong.”
Richard Herring, The Problem with Men: When is International Men’s Day?
