12. Laughing

Five A Day applies not only to fruit and veg but to the absolute requirement of 5 lots of convulsive laughter a day. Any of the following ideas should help, although a good schmooze with friends will generally do the trick.

  • Going to a comedy club, funny film, funny play, funny musical
  • Lovely potentially everyday funny experiences - sit coms, favourite videos, cartoon strips in the newspaper
  • Funny books - joyously hilarious treats, such as those by Sheila Heyman, Nick Page, Tony Hawks, Danny Wallace and those magnificently off-beat cartoons by Gary Larson
