NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Fat Mick


You're a cruel lot. 70% "of those who expressed a preference" reckon I deserved Chairman Pete's "Muffin Top" comment. That's it, I will retreat from all forms of gluttony and subscribe to the super model diet of water and thin air until I am leaner than a very lean thing. Unfortunately I will probably lose all my strength and be a lesser person, but that's OK because I will be thin. And Lonsy will probably beat me and then there will be nothing left for me but to slope off into inglorious retirement, but no-one will notice because I will turn sideways on and be lost to you. I hope you're pleased. And thanks to all those who voted "foul", even though I suspect my Mum voted more than once!

For the sensitive souls out there please note that the above was written with TVFIC!
