Whatno - comment? Well i for one, as i am told, can't resist saying somefink about protecting my bottom line from significant impairment from the fatal software error known to techies as an ID - 10 - T fault.

My Mum said: "son, you can work hard or you can work smart" she didn't say no more but was prone to laughing when i ran around like a headless chicken perspirin and holdin mi ead in mi ands and goin oh dear oh dear as da sun went down and i was still bashing the keyboard while she wondered of to bed for a good nights kip.

As a young man add plenty of energy to expend just didn't have the penny drop for a long time and then realised being fresh from a good nights sleep following a good productive previous day add me finkin straught and performin well in a meaningful and purposeful fashion like.

Having to accept i was a young ID IO T did knock mi ego a bit but more than made up for it in protecting my bottom line from serious impairment from self-inflicted errors over the years as i became a lot older and hopfully wiser or at least delightfully excentric as i would like to believe.

Mums not around anymore but she was "approving" of the whas now called work/life balance i achieved where we did have a lot of fun and laughter along the way as an extended family that was and is still finding time for enjoying the company of or helping others in the real world.

If the only time you have left to share your life is in a virtual social network it may already be to late you have lost the plot and it's time you reviewed your quality of life and did somefing about it in it...........

Be appy you might just live long enough to enjoy your retirement and if you don't at least you'll have few regrets !
