Look, I don't want to live forever, (that sounds exhausting). I just don't want to die whilst I still have sh*t to do. Hence, the whole subject of longevity - and why the 3-pack-a-day octogenarian might still be going strong, whilst the cardio-tastic, clean living 40 -yr-old is not - is interesting to me.

Why Your Smart Phone is Ruining Your Life
In my house, at least once a day, someone completely freaks out because they have LOST-THEIR-MOBILE-PHONE! You can smell the sheer panic as 2 minutes become 3. Where the hell is it? I don't understand. I literally just had it here. In my hand. And now it's GONE!

The Daily Mail Will Make You Stupid. Fact*.
The First Step is admitting you have a problem. If you are one of the 45.3 million people who in any given month read The Daily Mail online, then I regret to inform you – you do. I am only casting stones in the smug knowledge that I have recently cleared the rubble from my own backyard. Read it? I actually downloaded the app. Of an evening, I would happily scroll my way past the bikini-clad soap MORE +
