Just a little introduction from myself. I'm 35 yrs old, live in manchester, UK. I lift weights, play a little judo and smoke the odd cuban cigar.

You do judo? That's cool. I do jiu jitsu. From what I've seen, it isn't too different from it.

Thanks guys. And yes, I will be asking for advice on fatherhood, particularly how you get enough sleep!
Hey Eliabe. Judo and jujitsu are pretty similar but I found I enjoyed judo more and so stuck with it. Do you do bjj or traditional japanese?

You know, I live in Brazil, so they usually do not make that distiction but I'm pretty sure it's BJJ as they mention the Gracies often.
