BobI've spent the last 2 hours looking round this site. Hilarious is an under statement. I've been in stitches on some of the subjects and had to curtail what I wanted to say, for fear of offending some. But believe me, you can't write this stuff.........ViewDate:

Make Your Dates Easier, Less Stressful, and More Fun!Stephen. By the time I'd read half of what your saying, I'd nearly fallen asleep. In quick response to your ebook, take her to MacDonalds. Never fails for me. Burger n Chips in the car. What more could she want!ViewDate:

Retirement apartments - would you recommend them?I've sat here for 5 mins looking at your question and 2 answers. Unfortunately your not giving a current situation. ie. Are you healthy. Do you have a house. Do you want to downsize. This much I can tell you. When you sell the retirement property, which ever company you buy from, will take a percentage of the sale price, upon your moving/demise. So if your thinking of relatives to benefit from your estate, look a little closer at the end result. There are differences with all these companies. Also look at what happens if you need medical care. Some provide this service, others don't. It's not just a case of does this suit me. Other factors come into play as we get towards our twilight years. Good luck in your endeavoursViewDate:

Dieting - it just 'clicked'So Jan 1st re -started my diet. I was 90 kilos. Just weighed myself today 78.4 kilos No biggy, just slow and simple. By the way. Had pasty yesterday for lunch. Plus nearly a whole packet of Liquorice Allsorts throughout the week. What a TREAT and no one was looking. hahaViewDate:

Anyone ever done a coach tour on their own?Anyone ever done a coach tour on their own? Unfortunately I don't own a coach. But seriously. Go for it. Your not exactly on your own, well not with 50 other people on the coach. Remember your camera. You'll have a blast.ViewDate:

Should out-patients and visitors be charged to park at hospitals?At Bournemouth hospital they charge for parking like N.C.P. car parks. ie you get a ticket when you arrive and pay when you depart.Previously you had to guess what time you would spend at the hospital. ie 2 hours pay for that and if it ran over, you'd get the dreaded ticket. So this system is better. The Law Courts are just down the road, plus offices etc, so if they didn't charge,no one would get parked. Personally I think they are worth every penny.ViewDate:

Dieting - it just 'clicked'Diets aren't they great. Everyone shows us how to eat as little as possible. Result. I've lost weight. In reality your starving. You can hear your tummy rumbling. As for that chocolate bar you've been keeping as a TREAT. Now's the time to WOOF it down. Lets go back 5 years ago. I read a book. Amazing (only time I read a book is on holiday) Rosemary Conley. She talked about YOU CAN EAT AS MUCH FOOD AS YOU WANT. I couldn't believe it. Eat all I want and still lose weight. GREAT where do I start. Simply cut out the fat in your diet. Hello I thought, here comes the salad (uck). So off I plods, trying to think of food that doesn't contain fat. Well me not being very bright, couldn't think of anything without fat that wouldn't be nice and tasty. Let's face it. The amount of cheese I've consumed over the years. When I pass this mortal earth, I'm coming back as a mouse. I'd be in heaven. So I started my diet, minus cheese. Minus sausage, in fact MINUS everything I liked. But sure enough, weight was dripping off me. I should let you know, my occupation allows me to avoid physical exercise. After 2-3 weeks I was missing my beloved fatty content. So cheating as I'm good at, I re-introduced my FAVOURITE foods. A little at a time. I soon realised, VOLUME was really the problem. I digress at this stage. I need to ask YOU a question. How often do YOU weigh yourself. At what time of day, do YOU weigh yourself. Do YOU opt for stone and lbs or metric and go for kilos., So YOU know the answers. I don't. What I did was to weigh myself daily. Stupid I can hear someone say, standing at the back. Suggestion. Change the scales from stones and lbs to kilos. YOU will see instantly, changes up or down to your weight. YOU will see, did that chocolate bar, packet of crisps, bottle of pop I consumed while nobody was looking, really increase my weight by .1 kilo. It's that dramatic. And time of day is important. Same time every day. ,YOU will get a true reading over a weekly period. Positive or Negative. When YOU know that, YOU can decide, have I cheated or not. 2 more suggestions. Salad. Bland, horrible, disgusting. RABBITS FOOD. Go to the supermarket. Yes Please someone shouted. Lovely, FOOD. Wrong. Pep up your salad. Obviously Salad Cream, Blue Cheese Dressing but what about Sweet Chilli Sauce. Not gallons of it. Just sprinkle a few drops over the salad and instead of that empty stomach feeling, having just eaten, YOU will feel full. That's the feeling your looking for. My last suggestion is breakfast/lunch. Think of it as a car. No fuel, no go. YOU may think by skipping a meal, that'll work. Well it doesn't. Too keep going we all need fuel. Whether it's cereal, porridge, toast, it's all fuel. Lunch. Apple, Orange or Banana. Something light. All 3 if YOU like. I do. Don't like the above. 2 reasons that YOU don't. 1) YOU don't want to change your way of life. 2) Your content with your bulging waist line. My 3rd and final suggestion to weight loss. Change your plate size. No book has ever said this. A heaped plate full to over flowing is not good news. Obesity is just round the corner. So for me, Food is good. It's not the Food that's bad, it's eating more healthy type foods, but not consuming the volume. . YOU want too feel FULFILLED. Try it, you never know, it may just work for you.ViewDate:

Should smoking be brought back into pubs?Since the smoking ban, pubs have closed by the handful. I know non smokers don't like the smelly clothes after visiting the pubs, but you've seen the destruction of the brewery industry, smokers are an evil necessity. -
