So now research has now shown if you walk on cobbled streets you will live longer!

Forget your trip to Lourdes - visit Paradise Square!

I personally think this is a load of cobble*s.

*thinks...might be good idea to put stuff away before unpacking yet another box

Where did you here this?. It's the same type of thing that I read in the paper the other day, that having a shower everyday is bad for you cos it is poisonous in some way. I really don't know how the older generation have made it what with so many things being bad for you:o

Yeah I often get that. No not really:hihi: I think all cobbles should be preserved as they are part of our culture/history/heritage etc no matter whether they are supposed to be good or bad for you.

Aint you answered your own question there? :huh:

The old folk today have made it because they didn't have showers (that are bad for you) & had to walk cobbled or bombed out streets
in hand made clogs.


There were 14 of us living in a shoebox ont motorway, wi nowt but cold gravel for breakfast.



:D I'll get my coat

This might not be as daft as it sounds.The cobbles will be massageing the soles of your feet as you walk and strengthening the leg muscles.Showers could be washing off all the bugs that benefit us.
