    Slight contradiction here?
    And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

      push & pull aren't necessarily joined.

      the pull of the jam doughnut isn't the same as the push to go to the gym.

        You're going to the wrong gym mate. Plenty to pull in the gym near clientco. I've already got a Germanic goddess though.

        Mind you, if you were a starving potato farmer in Ireland in the 18th/19th century, the prospect of a big chunk of land without a blight infection would be quite a pull factor.

          That would push someone to leave the UK (where I am) was I in the US then I would regard the free land as a pull factor.

          Me I have a Berkshire Babe so I'm strictly look not touch at the gym! Doesn't sound as posh as a Germanic goddess though.
