Welcome to 2012; year of the Olympics, a bonus Jubilee bank holiday and, sadly, the Apocalypse (well according to the Mayans but then they did also predict that trousers would never catch on).
Some Mayans relaxing at home. Way too hot even for chinos.
Last year we made some resolutions that we didn’t stick to and this year we’re determined to do the same. Here’s a selection from Peppersmith HQ…
Love is in the Air
Gracie has vowed to find her mum a boyfriend. We’ve not met Gracie’s mum but apparently she’s caring, short and flirty, which could be perfect if you’re infirm, have low ceilings and are good at footsie. If this sounds like you then email us at iwanttodategraciesmum@peppersmith.co.uk and we’ll put in a good word.
The Born Ultimatum
Mike’s imminently going to become a dad for the first time, so for him it’s all about embracing this change. No more snowboarding holidays, eating out, lie-ins and all that other nonsense, for him 2012 is all about changing as many nappies as possible and keeping the house clean and tidy. Oh boy.
Dance Monkey Dance
Dan’s vowed to dance more in 2012. Seeing as he’s reaching the end of his clubbing days this will probably start with the purchase of some expensive tap shoes and end with the swift and stark realisation that he can’t actually dance (especially when sober). Could be a bumpy year.
The Status Quo
After much reflection Dave has decided that he’s not going to make any resolutions this year. We’re not sure if this is because he feels he’s reached a state of perfection and nothing needs changing. More likely though it’s because of the 2011 New Year resolution debacle which lead to his lifetime ban from the Good Vibes Body Studio in Bromley. Never again.
