Someone walked into a coffee shop and the old man at the table is one of the greatest guitarists and biggest rock stars of all time!

@MatthewvdWant @vlok_andre Button up … and shorts.

Should important negotiations or meetings be done in person or online? In an upcoming corporate guest speaker event I deal with this practical, and increasingly important, issue. The link to my article gives a hint at the complexity and nuance of the question conflict-conversations.co.za/conversations/…

@vlok_andre My observation these days with business calls is that many users have their camera off.

@gerald_ramsden Generally, off is a red flag. Why would you not want to be visible?

@CityPowerJhb Fairland too😩

@LiamJacobsZA I would love to see the full recording of your questioning of BSA. Where can it be accessed?

Here’s a sneak peek of my newest video with Boxing South Africa! I will be releasing this one in numerous parts (rounds). We have got to keep asking the tough questions! P.S. I couldn’t help but say “nê?” here 😅

@FrontRowRugbyXV Hands in the scrum.

If you could change one law in rugby, what would it be? I'd kill the yellow card for a "deliberate" knock-on. It's my absolute worst, especially when guys are genuinely going for an intercept. Why should that be a 10-minute sin bin punishment?

@ThePhDPlace Is it not 5 - you, your supervisor and 3 examiners?

I’m quietly comforted by the fact that only 3 people will read my PhD thesis.

@ThePhDPlace Well done!!

I finally did it! I finally finished my PhD!

@JulieStammPhD @philquinlan Thanks Julia, I’ll definitely give this a read. My area of interest is the legal aspects of combat sports, including the liability for injuries suffered. I recently presented a conference paper on the legal aspects of children in boxing, which should hopefully be published soon.

@gerald_ramsden @philquinlan Thank you! I don't go in depth in youth boxing, but I discuss a study finding an association between starting at an earlier age & later-life depression, impulsivity, & brain changes in ret fighters. Youth boxing can start at younger ages than I realized. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31587599/

My book is available in paperback today! Order here using the code RLFANDF30 for 30% off! rowman.com/ISBN/978153819…

@JulieStammPhD @philquinlan Looks interesting. Going to see if it’s available in South Africa. Does it discuss youth boxing?

@philquinlan Thank you!

@BarneySimon Good as a starter😜

Weekend chow. Thoughts?

@PRASA_Group Well done PRASA!

A magnificent public transport experience to Ellis Park! On @TheGautrain at 13:48 via Sandton, arrived at Park Station 8 mins later. Excellent security, friendly @PRASA_Group stewards showing us to platform 7, arrived at Ellis Park Station at 14:19. First beer: 14:24. Bravo!
