You have to choose The Evil Pixie. Unlike most of last year's crew of idlers and wastrels, at least you can be sure that she will TURN UP and FINISH. Even if she has a broken leg. You've seen her do it before, and had the picture of your homepage to prove it

My total cholesterol was 6.2mmol/l when I had it measured out of curiosity 15 years ago.

Since my overall cardiovascular risk is in the region of zero, I don't intend to have it measured again unless there's a medical reason to know the number.

Bad for your teeth, but a perfectly reasonable form in which to take sugar

It is not necessary to let it go flat, whatever anyone might suggest.

When I went skiing a few years ago for the first time in 20 years, my calves hurt so much that I was in tears going up the drag-lift. A change of hire boots sorted the problem out, and I have my own boots now (I bought the identical model to the hire boots that HAD suited me) and don't get any problems.

As for running after skiing ... no, never had a problem, though I've also never felt that I've benefitted from a week skiing and doing some running at altitude.

Going skiing makes me realise why I keep doing that boring running thing. It's great to be able to ski all day without worrying about fatigue or aerobic fitness

HH, did you look anywhere other than the tarmac? There were whopping great mile-markers with clocks on them
