I know - Chris had to stop playing rugby as he was too tall and kept being put into the scrum and it started giving him really bad backache - the Doc at CH said he wasn't allowed to play anymore.
Mind you - I am probably the worst spectator at a rugby match - I get quite frustrated with the ref, the players and the linesmen! I dare not go to another Bath v Harlequinns - i might get expelled!!

I don't think I will ever forget that description.
Btw, has anyone here ever encountered that flower in India or somewhere like it. The one that is the largest flower in the world, flowers on once in 20 years or so and stinks to high heaven? It is just that I have always wondered if it is bad as the books say it is.

hmm - quite correct - non pc terminalogy at CH was the thread...... sort of ran out of things to say about it!
Squits - rather nasty name for newbies isn't it - after all it's something men have after a curry and 15 pints of lager!

Of course you are innocent, Sean. Innocence personified if you ask me.
