It's nice to have things back on an even keel after the Christmas disruption. I'm not saying that I wouldn't appreciate more time off, but there is plenty to do each week and less than 5 days doesn't always leave enough time to do it.

As you may have noticed our seasonal magazine "The Bottomline" came out this week, inside which is the opportunity to win an LCD TV. All the answers are in the magazine itself, so it's worth having a go. You can download a copy of it here if you're interested, and you can even answer it here (you do need to be a member of Gabem to enter).

Susan's Legal Bits hasn't been updated yet for this month as she's had a lot on her plate here with end of year HR stuff. I am going to try to push for a new one next week, failing that we may miss a month. I will badger her as much as I can, as I realise it's pretty popular.

Speaking of having a lot on your plate, the post Christmas diet season appears to be kicking off here at Gabem, and debate is strong here over which diet to follow. I'm going to stick with the uncomplicated eat less idea, but all the usual fad diets are coming out, and whilst I don't want to turn this into a recipe board, I'd be interested to know if anyone has managed to lose weight and keep it off, and how they did it. You can get in touch here with any advice or comments.

Hope you're having a good week.
