I've shrunk

[screenman]

A lot depends on the size of the chip.

I just read this thread, then out of curiosity, measured my height (as well as I could by myself, anyway). I used to be 190cm, and now I'm a mere 187cm. Looks like age has snuck up on me.

I was measured last year - and am now down to 5' 8" rather than 5' 9".

SWMBO's worse - she's lost 2 inches so is 5 feet only!

Accy, It'll be a brexit thing. Everything in Britain is reduced.

Real men grow, Accy. I was 5' 6" when I was 40 but I'm now 6' 1" now I'm 60

Accy meant height, not width.

I went for a bone scan yesterday. They took my weight and measured my height. What weight and height are you?,asked the nurse doing the scan. Oh about 10.5 stone and 6 foot 1 inch i replied. You're not 6 ft 1" she told me. You're 5 foot 11 and a half inches! My heart sank. Surely it can't be right. I said to her. It's very accurate she replied. As soon as i got home i stood against the door with a book on my head and marked it with a pin. I measured it and saw 5ft 11"!! I haven't been under 6 foot since i was about 16.
Have any of you shrunk a bit?

Try measuring yourself again but get the method right. You stand on the book.

Have you got osteopenia/osteoporosis? Causing the fractures. Could be linked to the loss of bone density

Here's an idea for you Accy

You'd probably get a few volunteers to help out as well, Accy

You do know platform shoes look a bit odd on men?

 

[KneesUp]

You've just had a hip operation - maybe that affected the length of your leg!

This cannot be the case - I'm sure Accy would have mentioned it if his legs didn't still reach the ground.

He'd be taller if he could levitate

 

[Mugshot]

I think I've found the solution, Accy, as you continue on your shrinking journey

I hope Mrs Ian doesn't shrink. She's 4'10" as it is. Bleedin' small fry.

That's why i went for a scan. To find out if i have or haven't.
