Noodley said:It's just that the blokes are huge. The women are tall but not huge. 8 foot tall is not uncommon for most blokes near the sea.

Now we're getting somewhere. Attrick Towers is within a spoke nipple's hurling distance of the Great North Sea, and I myself am nine feet two inches in my cycling shoes. Mrs A is of course only three feet and one inch.Noodley said:It's just that the blokes are huge. The women are tall but not huge. 8 foot tall is not uncommon for most blokes near the sea.

Abitrary said:Noodley, a late night drunken scot is slagging off english women!!!!
Attack him!!!
Noodley said:I was just agreeing with you.
You were the one who excluded majestic Scottish women from your ramblings and I know from experience that Welsh women are similarly majestic, so we are left with one conclusion.
