A wee problem

IN 2015, a German court recognised a man’s right to urinate while standing.

In a country where men are now encouraged to sit while peeing, his landlord wanted economic compensation for urine damage to the marble bathroom floor.

Despite lacking reliable data for the UK, an informal poll revealed that about 70 per cent of men still stand.

Urologists explained that there are many advantages to sitting, and not only to men’s partners who have to clean the bathroom.

“The bladder empties faster and for men with lower urinary tract symptoms the sitting position is preferable to standing,” they maintain.

This prepares muscles for the change in routine. Then, when you first pick up a weight, start light and level up as you become more comfort able.

Give senna a miss

BLOGGERS and influencers claim that detox teas can help to lose weight, achieve a flatter tummy and banish bloating. Many contain senna, a natural laxative which should be avoided, warned Dr Gunter Kuhnle, Professor of Nutrition and Food Science at Reading University. Using laxatives was potentially dangerous, leading to constipation and an increased risk of colorectal cancer, he said. “There is no need for ‘detox’ as the body is fairly capable of doing this alone.”

HELLO my angels, the card I have pulled this week is the great gathering. In the past few months the vibrational shift around us has seen us either cut off people that no longer serves us, we either out ­ grew them, or they have chosen to walk away.

Even though this might be hurtful and painful when this happens it’s making room for growth within yourself and for new people to come in more in line with your vibration. There is a saying that goes “some people are in your life for a lifetime or a season and there is always a reason.”

You have to make the decision of what person fits where, everyone is either a lesson or a blessing and this will help you learn your lessons for your path of where you are meant to be, this is happening at all ages, whether you’re single, married, divorced, what ever age you are it does not matter, the universe wants you to grow and align yourself with whatever door is opening for you, the door of opportunity and greatness, and with that along comes people that will help lift you up and be your biggest cheerleader, wherever you are this is where you are meant to be.

At the moment you are never on your own even if you feel like you are, you are making room for what is to come, remember to drop the fear it’s easy to make excuses because you’re fearful of what’s to come so ask yourself this question, how is life working out for you at the moment with not having any faith? Because being fearful if you do not have any faith, either in the universe or within yourself that you can attract and achieve your goals however big or small they are.

As soon as you make the decision to better your life it will feel like you can breathe, the new people that come in to your life will only enhance you and you feel a sense of balance and peace and everything will flow more easily to you. So now let’s start looking forward to the new people, new experiences and new opportunities. This may both focus on what lights up your soul, and the right people will align towards you. Maybe it’s time to start the new class you have been dreaming about or start the gym membership you have been planning to, all these things you have been putting off, sometimes we feel we are too busy to put new things in our life, so why not start online? Online group of your interest, start that dating profile you have been thinking about doing, remember the universe is a magnet and by taking the right steps and by taking actions today you will be attracting the people you need in your life right now. And creating a path that fulfils your deepest dreams.

Let me know how this is going, next week I will be talking all things manifestation and how you can attract everything you can desire in to your life.

David Worboys Thinking Aloud

BEFORE the laws of political correctness, we told jokes. Many were profane. They could be sacrilegious, obscene, racist or downright sick. Some of these I found funny while at school and shortly after, but no longer do. Others are still funny but not very pleasant.

Looking back I chortle or snigger at the clever ones, many of them two ­ liners. But it is a long time since I heard anybody tell a joke. Is it because we stop telling them as we age or is it that we no longer have the same sense of humour? We need to laugh. We must be joking.

It is difficult to imagine any ‘snowflake’ being offended by this: Customer: “Fish and chips twice, please.” Waiter: “I heard you the first time.” Or the Sunday night weather forecast: “Tomorrow will be muggy, followed by “Tuegy, Weggy, Thurgy ….” Maybe such jokes turn up on social media, but I very much doubt it.
