In the US, he says, “most of our annual weight gain occurs during the six-week holiday feasting period between Thanksgiving and the new year, and … this extra weight tends to stick with us after the holidays are over.” We don’t have to worry about Thanksgiving over here, but there are three other days — Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve — that are, Guyenet says, “the definition of overeating”.

I am currently in the UK. I am however fortunate enough to receive small food parcels of sanity from home. Here is Lord Viking being adorable in the freshly mown grass of 15-degrees-warmer-than-here, just North of Auckland.

Adorable.

Truly bizarre. Utterly wondrous.

Tod Cutler makes medieval tools and weapons. He’s a very interesting chap. Check out his YouTube channel for a vast array of fascinating videos.

I’ve loved these two since I was very young. Delighted to see they are well-represented on Youtube.
Also check out Their First Mistake – while known for the visual comedy, the dialogue is full of great lines – part hilarity, part pathos.
Antoine Baril
Despite my prog leanings I have never got on with Genesis. Thankfully Antoine is here to make them bearable by precis-ing them and removing Peter Gabriel’s dreadful shrieking so the splendid essence of the choons can be revealed. Bravo, Antione!
