No I believe midget is a derogatory term.

I believe the acceptable term these days is oompa loompa.

Excellent!

Reminiscent of Chris Morris as some of his verbal over-runs.

"Proof if proof be need be".

". . . has that story with him reporting from there".

The 'PM in the afternoon' thing is one of my massive gripes - local radio territory

[wobbegong]

As my Mum said when I had this discussion with her 'well, I know I'm not allowed to call them goblins'.

Depends what they're doing at the time.

Chill out PL, it's nearly three o'clock PM in the afternoon.

Is midget the politically correct term?

I think I technically am one. Nearly.

He's not going to spin into a singularity screaming seafood calamari is he?

Anyway. There must be a sub categorization of midgets.

He's a tall midget, he's a short midget. Oh he's just about Mary's size that one????

Once seated a small midget waiter brings you your food.

I can beat that. Here at clientco contractors are held in high regard.

At lunchtime the perms turn up at contractors desks with a throne on a plinth, a perm on each corner and a bugler to lead the way. We are carried to the restaurant to the sound of music and we are announced to all insundry when we arrive.

Once seated a small midget waiter brings you your food. A five course affair. A rather skinny man will then check your food for poison by taking a try of each course, spitting the contents into a gold bucket. A sixteen year old naked virgin from the South Sea Islands then feeds you by placing your food on a silver spoon. On completion you are then carried back to your desk where a Thai lady provides a soothing head massage.

Today we had Swan and all for a £1

What's This? Dead Soldier already?

Run along and fetch another bottle Wilms, there's a good fellow. And be quick about it

I say Hooters, this burgundy's obviously a cheapo chateau permieaux; shall we order a Vosne Romanée?
