READING AND LISTENING
Walk or cycle for 'a happier commute'
For many people commuting is a necessary evil. Most see going by car or van as the 'least worst' option. This study by the researchers at the University of East Anglia challenges that assumption.
It suggests walking, cycling or travelling by public transport can lift the mood. Crucially, it suggests those who switch from the car to an active commute feel better across a range of psychological measures, including concentration, decision making and the ability to face up to problems.
The researchers say policies encouraging people to leave their cars at home could have a dramatic impact on public wellbeing.

WORD OF THE WEEK
hard to swallow
Something that someone has said is hard to swallow if it's difficult to believe.
For example:

• His excuse for coming late was a bit hard to swallow, don't you think?
• I find a lot of Jack's stories hard to swallow, but I still enjoy hearing them even if they aren't entirely true.

MUSIC
Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
https://youtu.be/W00b54UY7uE

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
I never cared for what they do
I never cared for what they know
And I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
