“Giving up alcohol has made me slimmer, means I actually remember the fun I’ve had and has done wonders for my sex life. What’s not to love?” by Suzy Bashford
This was the question posed to me by my friend Sarah recently, while we were out mountain biking in the awesome Cairngorms where we live. I hadn’t seen her for a while and she looked frickin’ fantastic. Skin glowing, eyes sparkling and she was riding the bumps and...
More benefits than you might think… by Anne Farthing
