Massive part of my youth. He was ever present. Came to my school once and gave a talk about his bird keeping. Seemed very nice indeed. RIP GC

Funny isn’t it. When I was a teenager I used to scour the NME and Melody Maker for any article or review about my favourite bands. It’d be great when I even found a small column of news or tour info. Could wait months for anything to come up. Now I can look at my phone and see what they had...

Phones are more prevalent. Learning difficulties, attention problems, and neuro diversity is more prevalent. Any correlation?

Yep. Mobile POS.

If children require a smartphone to do to class work, the school should have a stock of them and they should be issued by the school at start of lesson and taken back at end of lesson.

I struggled with gaining weight in my 20’s. It is hard to consume those calories and if you are working out, it’s even harder. I know you like to eat clean but I really would recommend taking a weight gain supplement for a few months just to get you to your target. It worked for me. And I...

You have to read 14 pages of conflicting advice and opinion on NSC before the GP will consider you for the medication.

Yes. Meat can be very good for you. But it’s wise to not eat it too frequently. Especially red meat.

A limited amount of red meat is good. Again, good quality and not too frequent is the general advice.

Well, mainly processed and red meats which are high in saturated fats and other harmful ingredients such as sodium nitrites. Lean, white meats like turkey and chicken are good for you if it’s decent quality and reared properly. Again, cheap meat can contain a heck of a lot of salt and brine.

People thought the internet would build a global village. Instead we got a horde of village idiots waving flaming torches and pitchforks.

Spent my first ever NYE in Brighton in there . Spent my jury duty in there. Haven’t been there for over ten years. Neve much liked the place and won’t be heading there again anytime soon.

“Shoo in”

The fact that there is a shortage of these meds for the people they are meant for and need them because some people can’t get off the couch, tells us all we need to know about the drug, its manufacturers, and their objectives.

In my line of work I see so many people reliant on energy drinks. Water alone doesn’t keep me hydrated on a shift so I use the Dioralyte style rehydration powders mixed with water. Luckily I find the Monster and Redbull style drinks absolutely revolting. So it’s no effort at all to swerve them .

When I look at the food young people eat these days and the frequency and ease with which they order takeaway food, I fear we are heading towards a diabetes and heart disease epidemic within 15-20 years.

I will certainly look into it, thanks.

Mounjaro comes with an FDA “black box” warning that the drug has caused both cancerous and non-cancerous thyroid tumors in mice and rats. The higher the dose and the longer they were on the medication, the higher the risk for tumors. It’s not yet known whether the medication might have the...

Yes, I’ve read about the starvation theories. I don’t buy them. Purely because it’s not sustainable. Diet is important. Cut out processed crap. Refined sugars. Eat more fibre. Limit your meat intake. Get calories from real food. Eat a fair bit of fruit and a lot of veg. Treat yourself now...

Eat less. Move more. There are simply no short cuts for 99% of the population. If this is costing people money I guarantee you it doesn’t work long term. The weight loss industry is one of the few business models based on the fact the product doesn’t work.
