Tis the season to remember by far the single greatest contribution to the "Fairytale of New York" lyrics debate.

Lots of #sneachta in the Kanturk/Newmarket area this morning. My husband tells me the roads are very slippy. The Land Yacht (ev converted BMW E39) was well able for it though. Heavy and wide like meself says you.

Thinking about methods I could use to explore how the agent ('consumer', 'citizen', 'patient', 'community member' etc. etc.) is imagined in public health, especially in relation to eating and food choices. Open to suggestions, with @statsepi.bsky.social's evidence pyramid as my north star.

Got to give a talk to some colleagues at Sciensano in Brussels yesterday, discussing how the new (re)medicalisation of obesity will/ should affect how we think about public health prevention.

This year, we didn't have a many small, scary callers as usual. Even so I'd just like to apologise to the tooth fairy and the parents for the Refreshers. (In my defence I did eat quite a few of them myself...)
