There’s a lot of knowledge in civil engineering about how soils will react when subjected to heavy loads. When you take lightweight vehicles and granular soils of varying composition, it’s a very complex modeling process.
Triathlon is a sport where the legacy is obvious. Anyone can do it; there are loads you can do. It is a massive participation sport. You can do it as a challenge, for charity or whatever. I believe it will continue to grow, and I will look forward to that happening.
I’ve played in practically every city in Scotland, and loads of towns as well. I just feel very grateful that I’m able to do that.

My brother was a drummer, and he was always, like, smashing the kit around when I was a kid, and my dad was, like, one of them old musicians, and he played in, like, loads of different bands in the ’70s and ’80s. Him and my brother were kind of like my main inspirations.
I’d say, whatever happens, happens for good and that is what happened with me, loads of good.
But for me it’s loads of pressure. Like, my mum is a strong independent woman, but obviously she relies on me a little bit. My little brother has his own job but he relies on me.
Until I was about ten, I wasn’t that good. I just had loads of energy and loved running around.
I love single life! Why would it be boring? I mean, I get to travel around and have loads of girls screaming at me, so it’s definitely not boring. However, it can get lonely on the road, but I’m sorted I’ve got good people around me.
The bookful blockhead, ignorantly read, With loads of learned lumber in his head.
I can understand failure: I’ve failed loads of times in my life; it’s not a problem. I’ve never feared it, because it’s a part of life.
There are loads of kids out there who haven’t got a clue what ‘Men Behaving Badly’ was; it was such a long time ago. So I’m able to spread my wings a little bit more. I was able to do it on stage over the years. Most directors and producers don’t know who I am these days, anyway!
When I used to play for Peterborough I played against loads of players who, now I’ve stepped up into the Premiership, I believe could have played at this level. You just need to have the rub of the green.
There’s loads of things you can do to make things easy for your throat, you can drink a bit of lemon and hot water couple of spoons of honey, you can gargle with port, I’ve done it a couple of times myself – but don’t swallow it!
I’m so jealous of my friends who came from these super musical households where they were learning piano at three years old. My parents didn’t really play loads of music around the house. We had the radio, but they weren’t teaching me about music.
The top end are still making bucket loads while maintaining the illusion of the American dream: that if you work hard enough, you can make a fortune. Meanwhile, the working and middle classes have been hollowed out of the system.

Every player would like to go and win loads more, but not every player can.
I don’t go, ‘I’m in the papers all the time,’ because there are loads of people in the papers all the time. Sometimes I’m still like, ‘Ooh, look- there’s me!’ I’m never like, ‘Wow, look at me on the bus.’ You have to be a bit grounded about things like that.
I’ve got loads of ideas swimming round, and I’ve even organised them in a nice folder on me computer.
I was in the school plays, I did a lot of music. I carried on through university for short films and loads of plays.
I really do like the independent way of working. You don’t get much studio intrusion compared to when you’re working on a big Hollywood film where there tends to always be loads of people interfering. The only problem, though, with independent features is that they are hard to sell.
I’ve been collecting linguistic oddities for years and years, ever since I was small. I’ve got loads of notebooks where I’ve jotted down things I couldn’t make sense of.
I think that writers are best served by sticking to their writing. Not having loads of theories about the best way to position the writing. I think that if the writing is good and the point of view is strong, the writing is going to take care of itself.

Forget mung beans’ reputation as healthy yet bland – used right, they soak up loads of flavour.
In year 10 or 11, I used to buy packs of doughnuts for 50p from Morrisons, and sell them for 50p each. I made loads of money. So I was a doughnut hustler!
‘Pair of Kings’ is so much fun, literally. It is a very physical show with loads of stunts and green screen work, and you never know what great adventure is ahead of you! It’s also a nice change in terms of being of similar ages to Doc Shaw and Mitchel Musso.
I just did loads of dead-end jobs and a lot of travelling – just farting around, really. I had quite a lot of fun, but I’ve got no qualifications, no skills.
I have read loads of books on Napoleon. For him to come from nothing and then lead his country, that fascinated me. It doesn’t matter what you think of him. He did it.
It’s a great experience as an actor to just work loads all the time. Constantly getting through material.
Do you know what, the reason I haven’t worked loads and loads is because I got so lucky working on ‘Popworld’ and T4. They were such unique pieces of telly, so I got really spoiled.
I have always seen Drogba as the example to follow in terms of a centre-forward. He was strong and scored loads of goals, and he was a quality player.
There was a Saint Laurent dress that I actually had to hide from my manager. I DJ’d for part of the money, did a shoot and got a discount, and it was still one of my most extravagant purchases. I’ve worn it loads, even to do chores around the house, so surely that makes it ok?
The 90s for me was the best era for clubbing. I was having a great time working as a DJ, loads of money and travelling the world, but I found that the crowds were getting younger and younger and less appreciative of the soulful, funky music I was playing, so I jacked it in.

I do have a personal trainer who I’ll go to every day – I lose loads of weight, then I get lazy and put it all back on again.
When we were on ‘The X Factor,’ we didn’t realize how overnight the fame thing was. We didn’t really understand it until we went on a shopping trip. It was like Week 7 or 8 of the show. We went with a few other contestants and there were loads of people, packed.
I don’t want people thinking they know me instead of the character. Steve McQueen has loads of stories about him – who knows what’s true? But it’s great for people to fictionalize rather than know the truth.
The thing about Prince Harry is that he has no choice. He’s not some egotistical rock star who wants loads of attention. That is his life. He didn’t ask for it, but he just has to deal with it.
I’m a serial monogamist. I’m not one of those people that can date loads of people at the same time, it’s all too complicated.
I find myself more affected by music the more I do it. Particularly when you’re touring, and you’re in the bus, and you’re listening to loads of music. Life becomes far more dramatic, I guess – you’re never in the same place; you’re constantly meeting new people. You almost become more sensitized to music.

I’m just experimenting with every different type of music you can imagine and seeing where my voice lies and what sounds best. I think when I do finally do the album it will be very eclectic – just loads of different stuff on it. That’s what I am hoping.
