Legs are a brilliant invention.
They are an economical, environmentally friendly and efficient method of getting from A to B.
Use them more often, instead of your car.

Supermarkets
Supermarkets stock overpriced "plastic" food that, in the case of meat, is far too fresh.
Use farmers' markets, and good butcher's shops, instead.

Pigeons
Pigeons have the entire planet to fly around, and use as their toilet; yet they choose Trafalgar Square as their defecation point of choice.
Why?

Fibre
Make sure that you include plenty of fibre in your diet. This is of great benefit, and assistance, to your bowels.
Healthy bowels mean a healthy life, and a sunny and cheerful disposition.

The Cornish Pasty
Let us sing the praises of the Cornish Pasty. A pastry pillow parcel filled with meat, potatoes, onions and vegetables.
One of the world's first fast foods; and infinitely more nutritious, tasty and wholesome.
Eat one today!

Water
Water finds its own level, or so the saying goes.
If that is the case, why is it that it is always raining in the UK but never in the Atlantic?

The Perfect Exam
Educational experts, businessmen and politicians constantly bicker about what constitutes a good method of examining and grading students.
Forget about three hour structured tests and case studies, that focus on peoples' abilities to regurgitate "crammed" facts.
Put the candidate in a room for 24 hours, with an unlimited supply of paper. Ask the candidate to write all he/she knows about absolutely everything.
Now that's the perfect exam.

Patience
It is often said that patience is a virtue.
However, there are those who seek to take advantage of this by relying on peoples' natural reluctance to complain about poor service and late deliveries.
So don't always be patient, stand up and complain.
