another quick question, do people find they get better results balancing their carbs with a long or a short spirit level?
Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys beer, and that helps!

I find it more important to get a good balance of carbs, protein and veg. Don't forget a bit of chocolate and beer, food for the soul...

I thought this was going to be a lube V wax thread. I've wanted to try wax but I just keep staying with what I know!
