Today they say is the naturally...
...happiest day of the year.
I would tell you why they say this, but my mate has just wiped a bogey on that bit of the newspaper and I had to throw it away as it was making me chunder. It's in the Daily Mail if you want to read about it. I'll have another scan of the skinny when I get to work.
Same mate is feeling a bit down on this the happiest of days, 'cos of his belly. I have told him just looking at it won't change anything, so have forced him to have a work out with me before I leave for the mighty Radio 2 this afternoon
Stephen Fry has dropped six stones in a year, and this has inspired him finally to face up to the fat..
So here he is eighteen months ago ...
And here he is now...
The rest of the world may be worried about the implosion of F1 and dodgy elections in Iran, but I have adipose to get rid of. I am saying 12 10 for me and 13 2 for the moustache - two weeks today - so we look swell as opposed to swollen for our trip down to The New Forest.

good luck with reaching your ideal weight and the same with your friend.

So the happiest day is official because of research done by Walls ice cream! Mmmm call me cynical if you like but the formula used to find this out was O + (N x S) + Cpm/T + He. Now what on earth does that mean?
To me it is a bit like having Valentines Day, Fathers day, Mothers Day and the like. Not that I am against them all in principle but it seems to me that these days are usually looking to sell something and it is just a marketing tool. Should we not be happy all of the time or love our parents and partners without someone telling us that we have to be happy or say I love you?
So in protest today I will not buy a Walls Ice cream (although I have to admit to wanting one really badly now I think of them.....) never mind how hot it gets. However I will tell my wife I love her when I get home.....with a smile on my face.....just because I can. ;-))

I'm with Keith on being told what to celebrate on what days - we should be happy every day.

Good Luck CLP and friend with the weight loss, I've lost quite a lot of weight over the last few years, maily due to the fact that I graduated from being a very sedentary student to working full time in a job that requires me to be on my feet for most of the day! I seem to have gone the same way as my Mum, we've both been bigger in our teens and early twenties but have shrunk as we've got older...
Having a lazy day today, have been feeling really drained lately, and days off have just been disappearing in a blur so I'm forcing myself to do nothing today!

Now, this is not something that would disturb him greatly: in the days of the hysteria when Titanic was the No.1 movie, I bought a poster and it was on the kitchen wall for about six months, until he gently pointed out that I was .... well .... mad!

It always makes me smile, and makes me think of not just DebbieC but all of the amazing friends I have made on this blog ..... and yes, Mr Deev thinks I have well and truly lost the plot!!

Now then the Fat thing. Getting rid of superfluous fat is rather like de-cluttering the house. A little fat belly can be a sign of something else you're hanging on to.
Therefore I always find that de-cluttering my life is the best way to restore equilibrium to me head, and the ickle body follows. When you're relaxed and at peace with yourself, you actually don't need to stuff your face beyond its needs. Of course, we all carry a bit of extraneous fat. If the old bottom didn't have any fat on it we'd split when we sat down. And that'd make a right nasty mess on the sofa, n'est-ce pas.
We need to take care, sure. Especially as we get a bit older. But what we need to stop doing is being so bloody perfectionist about it. This is where I cite certain areas of the media as having great accountability, but of course we have free will as individuals. What we CAN do is inspire our youngsters with a healthy dose of self-respect, teach them to be happy and to pass it on.
It's a start.
Meanwhile Christoff, give your mate a poke in his lovely little wibbly-wobbly belly from me and tell him he's a God.
But pass him a hanky for goodness' sake. Ew.

My daughter, Danielle is beautiful with brown hair and blue eyes. She just phoned to say she has her results. A first again!! My son Marc has brown hair, which he always keeps very short and has brown eyes.

On days like Fathers' Day and birthdays I so miss the ravin' nuisance that was the DDF Eric. And he was indeed a nuisance. If you arrived at the house with his Prezzy later than 9.30 you'd find him sat sittin' on the doorstep with his arms folded, obviously having behaved like a bad-tempered budgie with the plastic cover on its cage for at least 2 hours.
But the joy of giving him said Prezzy was second to none. He adored the attention, see. He'd mince around in what was invariably a new sweater or shirt, thinkin' he was chocolate and loving himself. And it was infectious. It didn't matter if he looked a bugger, he simply loved all the fuss, bless him. Ergo it gave us all the more pleasure.
Good job, really. Because being dragged out the scratcher of a Sunday morning to answer the phone to "'Urry up, you'll 'ave it dark.." .. you passionately wanted to smash his face in.
