As you can see from that picture to the right, I was a very lucky boy. A very lucky boy indeed.
Today goes to DWAIN CHAMBERS. Yes, go ahead and say it. Why are you dedicating to that druggie who ruined the sporting image of Great Britain. I'll tell you why.
Dwain was in school today, and he was taking a group of PE students throught fitness regimes, and we had a full Q&A with him. Now, as a member of the school newspaper team, I got to have a personal Q&A with him, and he was such a lovely man.
He was asked plenty of questions about the drug scandal, and to give him his due, he answered every one with detail and with honesty. And he does regret it. He has lost £2m because of it - just through sponsorship.
But he is going round schools, telling the kids what not to do, and to look after yourselves and not take drugs. He has his own foundation, in which he is helping to coach young talent. He has used his big publicity to his benefit, and has done brilliant because of it.
I really admire the man - I think he has a great deal of courage to do what he has done. And I think you need to judge him once you've met him, not because of his past.
DWAIN CHAMBERS, Friday 4th December 2009 is yours.
ADAM'S TOP 50 SONGS
#44 - MARVIN GAYE - WHAT'S GOING ON?
Just an incredible song. Has some of the most heart-felt lyrics I've ever heard. And probably one of the best albums ever too.
#43 - COLDPLAY - SQUARE ONE
One hell of a way to open an album with so much expectation and anticipation. Just an eery, scary, wonderful song!
