Hi Reader Dad Joke: What do you call cheese that isn’t yours? Nacho cheese! Song of the Week: Hollow Coves - Coastline People do things they enjoy doing. People enjoy things they understand. People understand that they need to progress. Ask yourself this…How many people would do karate if there were no belts? How many people would play video games if they couldn’t reach new levels? And how many people carry on with chiropractic care without a plan which shows that they are levelling up?...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: How do brains say hello? With a brain wave! Song of the Week: Placebo - Every you every me I have spent the last 2 days getting the final touches on the update for my Cranial Kinetics for Kids seminar and I want to give you, dear reader, a little sneak peak of what I am teaching this coming weekend in Amsterdam. I wish I could take the credit for this little nugget, but it was shared with me by one of my many bosses (I have more bosses now than I ever have…figure that one...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Why did the banana go to the doctor? Because it wasn't peeling well! Song of the Week: Venus - Bananarama This weekend found me in Newcastle teaching the Management of the Neonate. Great people great vibe and…a multitude of approaches to treating. We had diversified, we had SOT, we had ABC you name it… it was there and everyone was willing to share.One of the things I love about paed chiro's is that the egos truly are left at the door and we got to learn from each other.So...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Did you hear about the soup bowl that was almost empty? It had a leek in it! Song of the Week: Silver from the DMA's “So…I’ve been doing some research, and I think it’s my child’s retained primitive reflexes that are causing these issues…” I hear this a stack in the clinic, from well-meaning parents, grandparents, teachers…you name it. Primitive Reflexes are hot stuff at the moment. Videos are plastered all over Tik-Tok and YouTube with everyone from the Specialists to the...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Last night I had a horrifying dream that Disco was actually making a comeback. At first I was afraid, I was petrified. Song of the Week: Scouting For Girls - She's So Lovely Life is strange…One day you are taking your daughter through to see Uni’s and the next you are dancing at a silent disco party in Llanrhidian, Wales (I don’t know how to pronounce it either). If you’ve never been to a silent disco…I highly recommend it, it’s incredibly entertaining. The idea being that...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: What kind of phones do ants use? Microphones Song of the Week: Scouting For Girls - Elvis Ain't Dead Your face (zygomae, maxillae and mandible to be precise) is one of the most malleable parts of the human anatomy. An arm is and arm, a leg is a leg but a face…everyone’s is slightly different…because everyone has been through something slightly different. As countless of the books on the subject say, if the adult face morphology was entirely up to genetics then the upper,...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Why was the car always tired? It never took any brakes Song of the Week: Rascal Flatts - Life is a Highway If you were anywhere near the hills of Malaga this weekend you would have heard this phrase being shouted from our rental car as I attempted to navigate driving on the right side of the road. In fact, lefty loosie, righty tighty worked really well. Tight on the right corners and across traffic when turning left (don’t even get me started on traffic...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Where did the spaghetti go to dance? A meat ball Song of the Week: Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees I am currently sitting with my laptop and an authentic Irish Guiness in Dublin airport (they do taste better). Waiting to make my way home from a fantastic weekend with the Chiropractic Association of Ireland. A vibrant, warm and welcoming bunch. I have been looking forward to this conference for a few reasons, not least of those being my fellow speakers. Dr Monique Andrews...

Hi Reader Dad Joke: Do you want to hear a joke about construction? It’s still a work in progress. Song of the Week: Razorlite - America If you are old enough…(like some of us) you may remember sitting next to an old “dial it in with a great big knob” radio looking for your favourite station. When you dialled it in correctly it sounded amazing…but when it was just slightly out…static. Didn’t mean the song wasn’t playing at the station, didn’t mean the guy at the traffic desk wasn’t telling you...
