      Noisest walker I've ever known was a girl who used to live in a house share I was in
      She was 8 stone at the most and yet somehow managed to impersonate a herd of elephants with every step

        Brilliant. Maybe she can teach me to emulate 2 herds of elephants.

          This guy can't be more than 11 stone so I am discomboulated. He must have been on a executive stomping course.
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

              If he's flat-footed, that might explain it.

                Last time I looked at some 'man' shoes someone recommended on here they had big buckles and Cuban heels. If I were going for the Laurence Llewelyn Bowan look or Louis XIV I'd have bought them.

                  What about a couple of planks of wood that creak like stairs in an old haunted house?
