    (so a brisk 30 mile walk should see you lose 1lb !)
    Thanks.

    So one mile would be about 0.6oz or 17g. Oh dear.... it's not a lot of gain (err... loss) for a comparatively large amount of (very time consuming) work.

    I'm about fifteen seconds from murdering the eldest daughter - she never shuts up, droning on and on. Then it's bloody hideous crap music blaring out, then it's the smell of pungent deoderants.

    Pissed off.

    Should be a good game on Feb 16.
    I'm sure Leeds will play a more ambitious formation than Stoke's 9-1 formation (Sometimes reverting to the flat back 10). ;)

    Mmm, so if I walk 3 miles per night then I should burn off 1lb a week, is that right?

    Not quite, sadly...

    0.6oz/mile x 3 miles/day x 7 days = 12.6oz per week = 0.7875 lb per week (16oz per lb)

    So you'd need to walk 3 miles a day for just under 9 days to lose one pound, or walk 3.8 miles per day to lose one pound in 7 days. Make it 4 miles a day and you'll be ahead. ;-)

    I guess it all depends on how briskly you walk, too. If you put more effort into it then you'll expend more energy and thus lose more weight per mile.

    Parents' evening at my daughter's school.

    Over the years, broadly speaking, having become a veteran of these events, I've noticed that the mums become less yummy, the female teachers more so.

    I now fancy the arse off my daughter's geography teacher.

    Another regular vintage store in Berlin? MY ASS. - Or rather, our asses! The Shit Shop is the concept store owned by amazing Bonnie Strange and wonderful Lena Nußbaum and Laura Cherrygrove, and this basically equals awesomeness from the very first moment you step through the door.

    We provide fabulous vintage (hand-picked by Bonnie) hot young designer labels (some of them unavailable in any other German stores), customized vintage and even Bonnies own line "THE SHIT". If you made your way through the main room of the glamorous 80s wonderland, you can grab a tattoo made by Laura in her little tattoo studio in the second room of The Shit Shop!

    To the sound of trashy music, there will be girls bustling about in pretty dresses and 60s sunnies to help you with any request, comfy couches to enjoy a glass of champagne in and of course the awesomeness of (the very often present) Bonnie, Lena & Laura!
    ... pay the rent.

    Are there really enough kewl young people to buy their stuff and keep them in business? I guess time will tell (how long have they been in business?).

    I guess I'm just OLD. :-(

    Did you have a pint or a glass [1]?




    [1] If you order a glass of Guinness in Ireland you will get a half.

    Off to Bangalore tomorrow on business and trying to decide whether to pack shorts and fake tan as my legs are so white they will reflect light or just wear jeans/suit.

    Around 30 c and sunny

    Andy, as much as I'd like to say I was running from a bank robbery, the mundane reality is was lasered doing 70 on a 50 dual carriageway! Never even knew we had ARVs up here, spotted their "toolbox" and we had a chat about it.

    Apparently I have one of the top 5% most viewed LinkIn profiles of 2012 (so LinkedIn have just told me). That's strange.
