    The moral of that story is: Watch what you're doing with your bum... ;)

    That would definitely be a case of an incentive promoting the wrong behaviours:rotfl:
    I really don't understand why a flat built in 2006 has an analogue meter and not a digital one anyway ...

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
