Fleur Yes, There has been a mixed reaction to the Norwegian. Was he just overcome with emotion that his love wasn't watching him compete? Or was the worldwide media coverage just emotional blackmail? The Ukrainian athlete was disqualified for wearing the helmet...

Fleur @DianneN It's funny, when I went to the US I was surprised at the number of people who had cleaners, cooks, nannies and all sorts of staff. I had got the impression that America was the land of equality, away from all that old-fashioned aristocratic kind of...

Fleur I wondered that too. Swimsuits that concealed any lumps and bumps would presumably be some form of burqua.

Fleur I started the 5:2 system about 5 years ago and have pretty much stuck with it. I didn't aim to lose weight but to improve my chances of living healthier for longer. Only time will tell whether it works!

Fleur Well, since tomorrow is now today... the answer is I'm not eating breakfast. I started 'intermittent fasting' about 5 years ago and have stuck with it, after a fashion.
