Les Dawson I was talking about Les Dawson yesterday and saying what a lovely, genuine man he was. Ive had several emails backing this up with people who met Les. Just one for you from Chris Johnson, Chris says she went to Sheffield and met Les Dawson, and also Harry Secombe. Chris said they were such lovely people so warm, friendly and genuine. Nothing was any trouble and they talked to the people like old friends which was so appreciated. They had no airs or graces. Thats lovely isnt it? Les Dawson and Harry Secombe that Chris met when she went to the recording of a programme called Open House somewhere in Sheffield. Does my bum look big in this? Its something that women down the ages have always worried about of course, the size of their derriere. Now brainy boffins have come up with the answer to the agonising question of Does my bum look big in this?. Well the answer is that it looks a lot smaller if you wear black than any other colour, Im sure that most women actually know that already, dont need a book to tell us that. But its revealed in a book thats called Does Anything Eat Wasps?. Its a book of questions posed by readers of New Scientist magazine. Ill just read one final one from the book, are dark drinks worse for hang overs? well the answer is yes because they contain more chemical compounds produced by alcohol. The worst drinks for hang overs are, in order, brandy, red wine, rum, whiskey, white wine then gin and vodka. That book is called, Does Anything Eat Wasps? if youre interested. Birthdays Got a couple of emails here. First from Claire OSullivan from the Hull school of media technology, she says I would be grateful if you could wish a very Happy 21st Birthday to my sister Caroline OSullivan on Wednesday the 2nd November. Caroline gets the Levy Letter every single day, so Claire thank you very much and Caroline a very Happy 21st birthday for today, have a great day. Also another birthday mention, David Brent has emailed in asking if wed have some space in the Levy Letter to send some birthday wishes to his wife Diane. David says that shes celebrating a significant birthday today, although she still feels like someone half her age I dont think Ive dropped him in it there! Happy Birthday to Diane for today too, enjoy the day! Stress Today is actually national stress awareness day, if you didnt already know. What are the signs of stress? Well, skin problems, neck pain, headaches, poor sleep patterns, constant tiredness, lack of concentration and loss of sex drive can all be indicators that we are under stress. Also being prone to picking up colds and bugs And the answer to beating stress well factor down time into your life, easier said than done improve your diet; exercise; a brisk twenty minute walk will help; manage your time better, decide what must be done and what is less important.; learn relaxation techniques, something as simple as slowly breathing in and out ten times in one session may alleviated mild stress; maybe taking a regular hour break from your work, how on earth do you do that? Anyway its national stress awareness day, I hope your day is not too stressful. Well, thats it from me, have a very good day, stress free, and join me tonight BBC 1 at six thirty, take care, bye.
