Unhealthy sponsors for the 2012 Olympics - thoughts?
Hi, I'm just watching Newsnight and there's been a section on the sponsors of the London 2012 Olympics. Basically the sponsors include Macdonalds, Coca Cola and Heineken.

Midnight cravings
I keep getting really hungry late at night if i'm still awake. Usually starts at around 11.30pm. Does this happen to anybody else? I normally eat tea around 7pm so not too much of a gap to cause it. Haven't been giving into to the hunger so far (yay!) but any tips? Thanks :)
