    I also heard that when threaded buys new gear he is almost in Narnia before he finds shirts, and has the garments passed to him by a bint with frosty breath and a sledge!!
    <cough>
    for years I boasted about being a size ten, till the missus pointed out that the XXXXL wasnt in Roman

    The problem with planes, is that they have to distribute the weight, so a norm will always be next to a fatty.
    Any left-over problem is adjusted by pumping fuel from one tank to another.

    I'd like to add that I was always 36" waist, now 38" and the 'overhang' isn't that bad. So I deduce it's all gone on said BB, cheeks, just had a haircut and u notice it then, gf says my bum is small so not there, certainly boobs account for a fair whack, rest must be all on my penis....

    They need to stop making airline seats for Biafrans then.
    Also, drip trays.

    Yes, they are the worst. Seems to be the spanish last week. Always standing 3 deep in front of the barriers to the circle line. Kill em all!

    Do they have any idea how much that costs ?
