try to be good, you are bound to consume more calories over Christmas. And there's noth­ ing worse than that horrible, sluggish feeling that comes with too much food...and too little exercise. So this year, make sure you

do something about it. Resolve to take a brisk winter walk each day...and don't make excuses that you are too busy! Remember, even a short walk is better than none at all. If time allows, get yourself


half so guilty about all the food you’re eating. If all else fails, simply build


calories to put on a pound in weight.Two mince pies will clock up 370 calories, half a dozen chocs are 268 calories and one handful of mixed nuts is 256 calories. You can see how it all adds up!

epreise into your daily rou­ tine. Walk up stairs rather than taking the lift at work or in shops. Get off the bus a few stops early and finish the jour­ ney on foot. And on Christ­ mas Day itself, plan a family walk to work off all that din­ ner. I t might not totally reverse the effects of your over indulgence...but it will help! PS: It takes just 3,500 extra

office party be avoided? Follow these party planning and eti­ quette tips and you should be able to go back to work with a clear conscience! 1. Set a date and time for the


office party that is convenient for all involved, and make sure the chosen date means that some people can't get there for business or personal reasons. 2. If possible, don't have the


party in the office - it's proba­ bly not the best place for peo­ ple to let their hair down, and the chances of expensive equip­


ment being damaged are too high. 3. Work out the money well

in advance. If the firm is foot­ ing the bill, make sure people know about any restrictions. If staff are expected to make a contribution, make sure it's at


a level th a t everyone can afford. 4. Send out a memo or invi­


tations at least three weeks in advance, and make sure a RSVP date is included on the invitation.


5. Plan a timetable of activi­ ties for the party, such as


games, entertainment, or gift giving - but make sure speeches are kept to a minimum. 6. If it's going to be an evening party, make sure that arrangements are made for taxis to take people home or


arrange a designated driver system. 7. Because remembering


guests and spouses names is difficult, festive nametags should be provided. Once the party is in full


swing, there are certain rules to follow to make sure you don't drop yourself right in it. Even though the music is


playing; food and alcohol is being seiwed, and people are laughing, the office party is a business function. Keeping this in mind before


your every action can only lead to successful behavior. 1. You may not be able to


avoid the office party, but that doesn't mean you have to stay to the bitter end unless it is held during the workday. Arrive on time, mingle, speak to the boss, help yourself to the


nibbles, thank the host, make a graceful exit. 2. On arrival, don't head


straight to the bar or food table. You are at the party to


1 want for . Christmas


socialise with your colleagues, your boss, and to make new connections. Circulate the room before you make your plate or get a drink 3. When being introduced to


someone, make sure you look the person in the eye, and greet them with a firm but not knuckle-crushing handshake. 4. Speaking of handshakes,


always keep the right hand clean and free to shake hands. Balance your food, drink,


and napkin in your left hand to prevent having to switch items from hand to hand. This may


take some practice, but it can be done. 5. If you have clients that are


attending the party, remember they are your responsibility. You should stay close by, make sure they have plenty to eat and drink, and introduce them to the most important people. 6. Make sure you chat with


colleagues and tell them how much you have enjoyed work­ ing wth them all year. Remem­ ber to thank those that worked with you on projects through­ out the year.


7. Eat and drink in modera­


tion. I t is better to go back for seconds than to put the entire buffet table on your plate. Keep the alcohol to the barest mini­ mum. The office do is the worst place ever to get drunk. If you do plan to drink, it is a good idea to eat a little before you


arrive to reduce the effects of alcohol. 8. Avoid salty, greasy, or


sweet foods. These tend to make you thirsty, giving you an excuse for having an alcoholic beverage. Instead, eat foods that are rich in starch and pro­ tein. These stay in the stomach longer and slow the absorption of alcohol in the bloodstream. 9. If the party is being held


away from the office make sure you know what dress code applies. Leave revealing and bright coloured dresses for strictly social affairs and not the office party. 10. If spouses of employees


are invited, make sure they are recognised and treated as real people and not as an appendage. Include them in your conversations and talk to them about their own interests, and try to avoid shop talk.

putting together a programme for the channel’s ONE Life” series.


This week’s episode was titled “Tantastic” and


turned its focus to “tan-aholics” and the British obsession with looking tanned all year round.


They discovered Francesa and her mobile tan


business through her website www.tanprofession- als.com.


After setting up her own mobile tanning compa­


ny two years ago and advertising it through the Internet, Francesa found she was immdated with


inquiries from across the country. As a result, along with her partner, Les


"ir?St"S„*'S'Sr„art.er,


Howarth, she decided to set up a website which would be a dedicated spray tanning directory. As well as appearing on BBC One, Francesca has also been contacted by GMT V.
