Hello welcome to my Blog

Mezze is widely served in the Greek and Middle eastern world. An assortment of little dishes and tasters which accompany a nice ouzo or a glass of wine. So when you read mezze moments you will have tasty snippets of life as I live it, India for four years and now Brisbane Australia, all served up with some Greek fervour and passion.

The 15 Minute Morning walker

An advertisement in the paper had the testimony of 15 people whose lives have been changed by their 15 minute walk. Oh I thought a group I can relate to and hungrily read on only to discover that this was a machine where you lay down put your feet on it and it walked you 10,000 steps in 15 minutes.
I applaud the entrepreunership
I howl at the joke value of such a machine
I am unbelieving that even 15 people have even contemplated using it
It is extraordinary what people will do to avoid walking
Is there a greater pleasure than to walk and take things in all around you ?
Why would you want to play dead and pretend you did it unless you were old and infirm and had medical cause to need this assuming it was even proved to be effective which I doubt?????
Readers get real, look around you and see the obese people and kids who are the future of diabetes and heart disease in this country.
