Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

Actually now I think about Stuart "StuartHopkin" Hopkin used to have one and he's a confirmed tosser.

I guess that settles it beyond doubt.

Got the car back. In total, the bill was just over £1,850. Ouch.

They fitted 4 new tyres which are very nice & shiny, black, & round. Not English, Continental.

So, having spent an arm & a leg, the car will have to go now.

I waste money like you would not believe. It has to stop.

Stop wittering Kendall - you've got a few bob.

I would not mind a bob or two right now.

I guess they get away with it because most BMWs are company cars and the lease companies get a discount.

Perhaps if you were to downsize your gas-guzzling beemer to a more economic and eco-friendly mini you'd save yourself a nice few bob and help to save the planet too.

My Beemer uses less "gas" & is greener than that dreadful Mini they loaned me.

I've done just over 131,000 miles in her, & she averages 45mpg.

You want me to be more eco-friendly? Last advert I saw for eco-friendliness was by.......Virgin Atlantic Airways. Go figure. Wooly Jumper has a F1 Team, too. Very eco-friendly.

I was merely thinking about your "save the moles" campaign, and how everything would fit in rather neatly.

I found this 360° video of Haiti just now.

A bit odd at first but fascinating all the same:

Tony,

If you were inventing a time of day for eating meals plans now would you put the main meal first on the list or at then of the day?

End of the day Phil, last job, just before bedtime.

It is such a waste of time, eating, when there are things to be done.

Where is this question taking us?

He eats several main meals every day Phil. They don't call him Tubby for nothing.

I thought they called him 'Good for Nothing'?

I was musing on the merits of eating the way that most of us do with a small meal to start the day, a bigger meal in the afternoon and then a honking great big meal just as we are about to rest in the evening. Does that make sense anymore?

I woke on Sunday and went to the fridge to get some brekkie.Feeling the need for something substantial the only thing I could find was some bolognese sauce that the mrs had made the night before. My first thought was that looks lovely but I cant eat that for brekkie, but why not, so I whacked a bit of pasta on and had spag bol for breakfast. Later in the day I felt quite content and nice and alert so ate a small sarnie in the afternoon and some cereal in the evening, almost a day in reverse eating wise.

So I was wondering if in centuries gone by it just became a habit to eat in the way we do now and that has just stayed with us even tho it surely makes sense to eat loads first thing to power up the body and less late at night when your body is staring to rest?

A little random I know but I  might start an eating revolution!

Eating a big breakfast is certainly the way to go - the only time I ever manage to do this is when I'm in Vegas and stuff myself in the morning. It means I just don't get hungry for the rest of the day.
