Why were you standing on a chair?
You're supposed to sit on chairs and stand on ceremony...

Had to get a box down off the top of a cupboard and DS wasn't around at the time (have found a use for him - two actually as he's great for bringing heavy shopping in from the car:p).One was 7' 4" and the other was 2" different - but I can't remember if it was up or down.

Oooo tall! Had a customer in the other day who was 6'5 and that was enough of a problem:eek: (Nothing against tall folk just finding clothes to fit them:o)Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

He'll be opening jars and bottles of ketchup for you next. Don't ask me how I know...skint_spice wrote: »Oooo tall! Had a customer in the other day who was 6'5 and that was enough of a problem:eek: (Nothing against tall folk just finding clothes to fit them:o)
It's not just tall folk who have problems getting stuff to fit. With the advent of clothing made in China, I'm finding trousers are being made with...how do I put this delicately?...a lack of volume at the front.
That's a rather more pressing issue... :rotfl:"Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

It's not boasting...it's a ongoing issue in trouser choice which cramps my style...skint_spice wrote: »See that's not a problem in our national dress...
It may come to that...

Mustard, cyan and burnt umber. Not a colour combination you see every day. Not sure if I recognise the clan that tartan is from. Is it the McColourblinds?& to think that they took the pics on Stirling campus :eek:
