I didn't really watch any TV during its heyday, so references to it tend to just go straight over my head

I've read that red wine is good for you, that it's bad for you and that you need to drink less so I've decided to give that up and hit the really hard stuff, instead.

Quiet news day. No horror stories to report so they dig up something almost horrific.


Last night was a slow one for BBC London - their main bulletin included a piece about a lady who had bought an old suitcase that belonged to a vicar, who wanted to know more about the vicar's involvement in D-day.

It would be interesting to know what the basis for this new advice is, given that the previous advice had no scientific grounding whatsoever - it was literally just a load of conjectures made by one person many years ago, and presented as medical advice.

I have a simpler system. Divide all the food and drinks into two types. The ones you like and the ones you don't. Avoid the ones you don't like and enjoy the ones you do.

Bingo, your stress levels drop and you live a longer and happier life.
