According to scientists in the US, it seems that hobbies such as reading and knitting can delay the onset of dementia so perhaps its time to get down to reading all those unread books that we were talking about recently, or getting the knitting needles out to knit that scarf that you might need for the next time that winter hits these parts. Hobbies like crosswords have long been known to be something of a defence against dementia, as indeed are some of the games you can find on a Nintendo DS if you can afford one.
Watching TV does not seem to count however, To watch stuff like Celebrity Big Brother you have to be fairly well brain dead even before dementia sets in.
There seems to be no research yet on what the effects of writing blogs are . Perhaps some learned scientific foundation with a large bank balance could fund some. I would be happy to take part if the price was right.
I am always glad to aid the advancement of science.
