    FW if I still have job, and you do get to your optimal weight I will BUY you the leathers!

    Now this is something that I'll consider very seriously - but without conditions. You will have a job and you will do the other stuff as well.

    When I am a stick insect Will will buy me leathers! Woo-hoo! Us of A, here we come with Little Boy behind me and Mr FW driving a very large and comfortable car infront (so that I don;t get lost).

    Good luck tonight, mate, and keep cool.

    OK, people. You know that I was appointed as international fellow to an overseas university in December? Well tomorrow I am off to give a brief lecture there and to meet everyone. Think about me on Thursday - I really need to ace this one.

    Hi KC and welcome. Glad you feel positivity - because on this tread we are allowed to have problems but see them as welcome puzzles rather than weight bringing us down. And I'll post stuff this weekend as promised about building income. We can test it together.

    Thats so important isn't it - problems really can be opportunities, and you have to be open to them, and other ways of being.

    Sorry you're cold!
