Blood Pressure

[The Lone Gunman]

Should be very good for the BP as long as you don't just lie back and think of England. The more adventurous the position the better for your heart. Or at least that's what I tell the missus.

Funny, thats what I tell your missus too.

Why? It clearly doesn't work.

Didn't take your for the class idiot. So as to save my breath I will just tell you: of course it works.

.. Have you had your cholesterol level checked?
...
8 pints a week is about what the doctors recommend isn't it? As we all know beer is good for you. unless you meant pints of wine/whisky that is...

Cholesterol perfect. Needless to say that I ate almost all my life like a pig and only gained a few kilos lately. Oh well, 8 pints is only now. In the past it used to be 8 pints 2 times a week but what the hell we need to have limits, don't we?

Health is a bad beast and we should never make a fool of it. However, what can I say? A life of restrictions is a no-life, so what's worse? Is a 100 years of no-life worth living?

We all make our own priorities of what we enjoy. Personally I think the horrible ways to go with smoking are not worth smelling like an old pub and not being able to run as far without getting out of breath. Now alcohol i can understand. All that pleasure and only the odd splitting headache, puking your guts up, broken toe, nose, hand etc, nearly shagging mingers, potential liver disease etc. to pay for it.

But like you say no point going on for ever either. Looking at how all my 80+ relatives have done/are doing I think i will take up HALO parachuting when I am 75 or something.
