MK and DS pictures

[KnopfleRick]

He looks exactly the same than in 2019, and I'm happy for that, he doesnt look worst, so, that's good.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw the pictures.

Hmm Mark has gained a lot of weight. He doesn‘t look so fit. So I think julio is right with his gossip he heard from people which are close to MK.

I have a friend living in Chelsea, not far from MK lives, and he said to me that is very usual to see MK and his wife walking by the street, doing sport, everyday. So looks like that's the way he's trying to be fit or at least control the weight.

Whatever sport he is doing, it's clearly not working...

Erm, what gossip? 

Anyway. I vaguely remember reading an interview with MK from a few years with him saying he was coming from a yoga-of sorts class on the day of the interview. Don't recall where I read it though...

[KnopfleRick]

I remember an interview from a few years ago where he mentioned doing Pilates. Don't know if he's still at it. But anyway, going for a walk with his wife is better than sitting on the couch.

Sorry for my bad English, when I mean "Doing sport" I was refering to the walking thing, actually what he and his wife do is what we called in Spain "Walk very fast".

As long as my friend says, you can see them doing that all days more or less after lunch time around Kings Road in Chelsea.

I remember when he had the bike accident, he said he was fit because he had a personal trainer that went to his house to train him. Obviously he doesn't have that trainer anymore.

Maybe he is doing "Nordic Walking", but im not sure.

"Walk very fast" = power walking.

He walks to the chippy!

But he doesn't live there anymore, does he? He moved out of the city, right?

His London home is near the Kings Road in Chelsea and his country residence is in Hampshire, near Beaulieu.

He still lives in Chelsea.

And also has a house in New Forest, just in front of The Solent.

Is this not the guy he met in India 2005? And exchanged a guitar for some object I don't remember

Yes, and both met again in July 2019.

This guy is only Sachin Tendulkar - one of the most respected cricketers in the world of all time - in fact he is a legend!!
He is a keen MK fan and they both met and Sachin gave MK one of his bats and MK gave him a guitar!

I’d driven my wife and 8 week old baby 600 miles to see him, and carted a guitar neck in the hope of getting him to sign it. I had to make a split second decision to stop him or not. I kind of felt it was a once in a lifetime thing, bumping into your hero in the street so I went for it.

He could have said no but he didn’t!

Whereas I travelled just 42 Miles to see him at Bridport and didn't even pluck up the courage to ask him as I just froze! - Ingrid did it instead!!!
