110% wanker

I was inspired by a couple of punters who sat at the bar throwing blog topics they would like to see covered. We narrowly avoided the history of golden showers and the evolution of porn. After bypassing such realms which aren’t my speciality we settled on the 110% myth. Equal to the chicken and...
