Beautiful Sunset :) :)




Cold Breeze,
Beautiful Waves,
Silent Waves,
Excited Me To Experience
The Cool, Chillness By Placing
My Foot In Waves.


When, Waves Washed My Foot,
Felt As Though, There Was Some1 
With Me, Experiencing The Same.


My Heart Repeatedly Forced Me 
To View Sunset, Behind The Hills......
But I Wasn't Alone.....

I Could Feel The Presence,
I Could Feel The Touch,
I Could See A Formless Figure
Through Waves.


As, I Went Some Distance Ahead,
I Found A Sea Shell,
Few Crabs, Wish I Could Enter 
InDepth Of Ocean, To Meet
All Aquatic Creatures. 


PS :- Dearies, Thanks A Lot For All Your Sweet & Cherishable Compliments. 

Herbalife

Tupperware, Kleeneezee, Amway, Avon. What have these organisations got in common? Yes. You at the back... That's right. They are companies that have promoted and sold products in a different way from more typical organisations that present their products in stores or supermarkets.

A couple of weeks ago, I saw an intriguing classified ad in a magazine called "Teacher". The ad gave no clue as to what the product or service behind it might be. Anyway, I rang up and this morning drove to the Totley area of Sheffield to meet semi-retired couple Gillian and Mike who are well-ensconced in a company called "Herbalife". They gave me a "Herbalife" energy drink and a nutritional snack bar. Their home was spotlessly clean and I could see their cat waiting outside their spacious conservatory to be let in.

Until this meeting, all that I knew about "Herbalife" is that they sponsor David Beckham's current club - L.A. Galaxy. It seems that like the other companies I mentioned, "Herbalife" doesn't work through shops. It has the sort of construction we associate with pyramid selling whereby if I decided to join up and somehow sell a few products, a chunk of my commission would go to Gillian and Mike.
I have never been one for vitamin products, energy drinks or diet formulas and my life philosophy is more about enjoying my time on this planet, eating and drinking what I want rather than becoming religiously health-conscious. So I am already thinking that "Herbalife" hardly fits with who I am. However, I am not yet going to dismiss the "opportunity" completely. Before doing so I thought I would ask visitors to this blog what they know about "Herbalife". Has the company touched you in any way or have you heard particular stories about it?

It's Nearly That Time...

Took Little Lad out to see some of the local festive light displays yesterday, including this one at a house in nearby Sonning. The owner goes to great effort and expense every year to put on an original display and collects donations for a local children's charity. One year he even had an artificial snow machine going believe it or not...





























Earlier in the day the Royals hosted Scunthorpe at the Mad Stad. Please can someone tell me how a team that two years ago beat the mighty Liverpool, managed to dominate a match for more than 75% of the play and still not get a win and a vital three points? Reading are now in 21st place, only one above relegation.

Reading 1 - 1 Scunthorpe


Also I thought I should mention the following, perhaps a contender for Product of the Week (assuming there is such an award). It helps. Does that make me sound old? LOL
