    No - it's not enough:

    7. Enjoy life more.
    8. Have a better Christmas and New Year

    Thanks for that Zed. Enjoying life more is certainly something I should do more of. In part that's why I'm aiming to pay off two cards rather than three.

    Already started on one resolution....

    Bought a magazine yesterday called, rather imaginatively 'Yoga'. It has starter poses for beginners with 10/20/30 minutes to spare. I started with 10 minutes this morning and pretty much instantly thought 'Why didn't I do this year's ago?' It may turn out to be a very wise purchase.

    But you're mixing men and practicality. That's not very practical... :rotfl:

    That could be my work mug - I love a wishy washy quote.
    I also like 'I run because punching people is unacceptable ' but I can't claim to be a regular runner!

    Don't know whether Yoga is an international publication.

    Am in Dublin Airport drinking black coffee (mainly because the putting in milk function was Too much for me to cope with!)

    Had about an hours doze on the flight last night/this morning, and about 6 hours the night before. Have to stay awake for my 1pm flight. Wonder if anyone has ever stuck a stamp on their head and their postcode across their forehead and been sent home?
