Within a few paragraphs the author will reference about three or four people-A promoter, a Trainer, another Boxer, an opponent. I can't keep up with it, there's no way that i can remember all of those names in such a short passage.When i do come to reading about them again a few pages in, then i have to go back and re read the passage that originally told me who they were. Absolute nightmare. Anyone else have the same problem when reading books with loads of detail......like names....
      Re: Four Kings - I don’t know if you’ve seen the documentary? If not, I highly recommend. It’s superb.

        Audible is your friend. Audio books on Spotify now too I believe. I love ‘em. Pop your AirPods in and you can be multitasking at the same time. Sorted.

            I haven't. Cheers for the recommendation. Boxing is probably my favourite sport, it fascinates me, The boxers and the trainers i mean :thumbup:

              I prefer to read something, it's a sort of wholesome commitment if you know what i mean, not to be mixed with the tedium of work and exercise :hehe: I just struggle with detail, or what i call 'Too much information' :hehe:

                      I don’t think that anyone has noticed, you may just have got away with it.

                        Alan Turing would have packed his bag and ****ed off home after reading one of LOM's efforts.

                          One of my admin team does it. I’d never noticed this before from anyone else and have no idea why. If it’s not too much, I change it all back.

                            But what about the "rule of personal choice"? Your admin team member will be complaining to HR about you.

                              To follow TLG's original post, apart from Sludge it looks like personal choice splits down familiar lines though. Free thinkers like TWGL1, Pipster, NinianClark and RonnieBird invariably use the punctuation space. Perhaps that's the pathway to gifted and talented enlightenment?

                                That is a coincidence, And something to consider.
