Richard, though I'm a woman, I once parallel parked with 1 inch to spare on either side of the car. (Forgive the interruption of what has been an hysterical thread; I guess you might call this threadus interruptus!)
I was speaking primarily of parking in a small gap in a row of vehicles. ########################################## Does this mean that the vehicles were fighting?
Gosh, now we're down from five and one half feets (or is that footses) to one inch! The incredible shrinking thread!
that sounds like a personal problem to me! ******************************************** That reminds me of the man who, on his wedding night, revealed to his virgin bride his exceedingly tumescent four inches. She asked, "Just who do you think you're going to satisfy with THAT?" He replied, "Me!"
Grandfather, who stood 6'1" tall, applied for a job where there was a maximum height of 6'. On the job application where it asked for height, he wrote 5' 13". They hired him.
Funny, Angel! It reminds me of my moronic way of calculating height in centimeters for nutritional assessments. Since I know that there are 2.54 cm in an inch, I change the height to inches and then multiply by 2.54. When it's meters that's needed (for body mass index), I just move the decimal over 2 places. I'm sure that there's an easier way, but this works for me!

I had previously conjectured that Brits seem particularly concerned with a subject we'd previously discussed.
Sunday's London Observer reports thus, as part of a broader survey:
"Almost 1 in 4 men (23%) is unhappy with the size of his penis. Men aged 35-44 are most likely to worry about penis size (29%) but such concerns do not diminish with age as 26% of over-65s are also unhappy."
