Laurel and Hardys

At one of my medicals for diving the doc suggested I loose some weight.
I pointed out that although I agreed with him, I would look like a bean
pole if I got down to the "ideal" weight and a BMI of 21. He agreed and
pointed out that statistically the lowest mortality band was a BMI of 24
to 26.
ie they live longer.

There is hope for me yet!

 

Conveniently side-stepped by a lot of "healthcare professionals", it
would seem, possibly to keep within the ever-tightening NHS budgets
and targets.

Without the extra tonnage, many years ago and once I got past the
painfully thin early to mid teens, the phrase "brick shithouse" used
to be heard in reference to my build (30" waist, 46" chest).

I guess that is still lurking inside, somewhere... except the "brick"
part went away and hid.

 

But then, it's just a basic guide for normal people rather than
sportsmen and others with higher than normal amounts of muscle.

AAAAAAaaaargh!

 

probably a bit tight.

 

I'm now looking for a loose bit of weight to lose!

I toook all the double characters out of the rest.

 

The wet suit stretches (a bit) the dry suit doesn't and I'm not buying
another one. An O3 2-100 costs too much.

 

I am going the other way having shed 10Kg or so, there's a bit more
room.

 

12.9%, eh. Cancer?

 

AIDs

 

How soon can you both get here?

 

Pretty obviously, not too well.

 

Curry for dinner should help. Yummy.

 

Or change <perks> to <Central Perk>?

 

you: out. now.

 

It wasn't *that* bad, surely?

And there's a Windsor Great Perk in Windsor.

 

I think <Joey Deacon> would be more appropriate.
