That's odd.. I didn't knew CP was spying me.

Unfortunatelly, in my case, that option with the front teeth is for real. I had an accident quite time ago and I am getting new teeth covers (if everything gets fine tomorrow).

As other options, I choosed...

More time with friends and family.... Just FYI it is not a problem because I work a lot (which partially is true), I live 2000 km from them. I go when I can, but I would not mind to have a bit more.

Better health and fitness... Too much time sitting. Starting to develope what in my hometown is called "the felicity curve" Laugh | :laugh: Laugh | :laugh: I already have my eyes on a nice mountain bike and some trecking shoes. I am going to take profit that my girlfriend ist living close to the alps.
Regards.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
