How is it possible that I always get ill just when I have made serious plans to start an exercise programme? This has happened so often that it cannot be a coincidence but then it must be a coincidence.... At least five times in the last two years I have either been doing the 'programme', whatever it might be, for a couple of days at the most or , like this time just THINKING about it, when I get a virus type thing with cold symptoms, high temperature etc. Also the last three times I have been on holiday, two hot and one in snow, I have developed agonising sinus/ear pains preventing me from swimming or skiing. What, what is going on? This time I was only READING a book about yoga but obviously that was enough to trigger the resistance mechanism. How is this mirrored in Nature, perhaps that would hold a clue. Non-exercising creatures? Python - tortoise - sloth ... err... Do sloths live for ever? Maybe it is important that I live to a great age and become a wise tribal leader of the people of the moor after the end of the world as we know it.

This is a test. It is nearly 11.00 am my time. 3.00 am your time. My last post took over eight hours to appear although saying that all was normal inside here.
