Neely Old Chap. I had no idea you had such delicate sensitivity. I shall thus refrain from making the post of my advice on using cling film and baby oil.
Just as well - we were only about five posts away from a Top Tip about how to handle prolapsed farmers.
tip 258 - Be prepared.
Tip #259 - Always buy little gifts for that someone special, so that if you miss their birthday you'll get less of a bollocking

Ha, ha like it.
Tip 260 - Go with your instinct.
It's usually right.
Definitely!
This one's a Japanese proverb...
Tip 261. Head cool, feet warm, stomach 80%
Dude, you don't even know. Or maybe you do. But yeah . . eating less prolongs life. Actually - a low calorie, high nutrient diet turns on a gene in the body that affects most of the other genes; makes them waste as little as possible . . also a reduced calorie, high nutrient diet in mices was found to increase their lifespan by like 30%. . the scientific basis for fasting. But also, it just makes you overall so much healthier.
Gah, Nik, I know this is true, but why are we drawn to those dratted high calorie foods???
Tip 262-Moderation in all things. I think someone else said this first, but it is a good one, maybe all we really need.

I don't know Neely - this has really gotten me in trouble lately!
Tip 263 - Practice makes perfect, I really hope.
And I hope I don't get fired or banned before I learn. What do you do if you're socially inept? I go into a room and think, "I love the women here!", and I say it. Then I realize that there's 3 and I only like 2 of them, so I say, "What I meant was, I love 2 of them!" Then I realize: ooops, got that wrong! The forum is great because I can sometimes edit. In life I can't edit. In life it's the supervisor I exclude, and there's no edit. Thankfully, she's not the employer, though.
tip 264: (From a Zen saying) 80% is perfect. So don't go worrying about the other 20.
Tip 265. Aim for perfection, but settle for excellence.
Well put.
However, should the settled-for excellence ever bring the subject up over breakfast, don't mention the one that represented the aimed-for perfection.

Nothing but habit, Qi.
Tip 266. Meditate daily.
No, no I'm sure you're fine on that.I don't know Neely - this has really gotten me in trouble lately!
Oh really? I've ate less this weekend, due to eating too much Friday and being a tad ill, but I vow to continue with the eat less philosophy, but that also comes with the following:Dude, you don't even know. Or maybe you do. But yeah . . eating less prolongs life.

Tip 267 - Eat more vegetables.
Yes, yes I am fresh from seeing Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall talk and watching his new series, but I think it is a good idea anyway. Tomorrow, I'm having vegetable stir-fir for tea with nuts and orange!
