Boots v lightweight shoes

Some thing I have learnt from my training week-ends, is how important it is to look after your feet.

I sweat a lot and my feet get very hot and sweaty.

So sweaty that I have started to change my socks half way through the day, this is certainly very good for me.

Maybe I should be walking in lightweight shoes, the most talked about ones being the Inovate Roclite 315.

Rose from backpacking light phoned me today to see how I got on with my x-socks, we chatted about boots and lightweight shoes.

Maybe next time I need boots I will try these shoes but for now I will have to stick to what I have …if only you could try these things before you buy……

Your age…..by eating out……

Don't tell me your age; you probably would tell a falsehood anyway-but your waiter may know!


This is pretty neat


DON'T CHEAT... BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute. Work this out as you read ...Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!


This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.


1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to go out to eat.
(more than once but less than 10)
2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)
3. Add 5
4. Multiply it by 50
5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1757... If you haven't, add 1756.
6. Now subtract the four digit year that you were born.
You should have a three digit number
The first digit of this was your original number. (I.e., How many times you want to go out to restaurants in a week.)


The next two numbers are
YOUR AGE ! ------ (Oh YES, it is!!!)

THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2007) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE IT LASTS *****
