What is investment? Usain Bolt won 8 gold medals in 3 Olympics, and he only ran for less than 115 seconds on the track, earning $119M dollars. That’s economy of effort. But for those 2 minutes, he trained for 20 years. That’s investment. Think long term.

“I made my appearance at 8 o’clock on the morning of August 21st in the year 1920. Pooh was only a year younger (given as a 1st birthday present) and my inseparable companion. As you find us in the poem ‘Us Two’, so we were in real life.” ~C.R.Milne #HappyBirthdayChristopherRobin

I do like to be beside the seaside 😊
Medievalists out there, need your help in identifying a story my boss described vaguely to me as: "an English knight captured during the crusade who was brought in front of Saladin and said 'how do you feel about not killing me' and the Saladin let him go".

OLYMPIC CHAMPION! For my country, my son and my family. For those who stayed up through the night to watch me. For all those people who need a bit of light. You can get through this 🙏🏼

I can’t wait to paint another elephant! I have an elephant commission in the pipeline, which I’m so excited to start. There’s something so satisfying about painting an elephant’s skin. No two folds are the same, unlike fur, which can get a bit repetitive.

It might end up forgotten, but Jordan Pickford brilliantly stopped Andrea Belotti and Jorginho last night in England's shootout defeat 💪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
