S’up holmes?
My name is Barry or Baz if you’re feeling informal. I’m a black belt under David ‘Speedy’ Elliot. This is my attempt to tell you all about my adventure through the grappling word. Come in, take a seat, put your feet up.
My aim will be for you to see things through my eyes, and since I don’t have the ability to conjure that up yet with some sort of techno-wizardry, I’ll just have to treat this as a diary. I’ll splurge thoughts down of which you’ll be able to read and hopefully see where the hell I’m coming from.
I’ll warn you now, if you’re not into grappling, whether it Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Submission Wrestling or even the odd smattering of MMA talk you’re going to find this pretty fucking dull. Sorry about that.
Cheerio.
This is myself as a humble white belt, choking out my old boss.
The Exploits of a Lazy Grappler. 
What a great blog. I love your honest and engaging writing style! Your personality certainly comes through…in a way that makes me think, “I need to get across the pond and have a pint with this man!”. Cheers!
Cheers man! Self-deprecating, sweary nonsense about sums it up.
Also, I’m more of a Wild Turkey man than a pint man.
