Interesting thread! A lot of truth in there from all sides.
Some observations from the last 12 months.
We went to Telford last spring, I can honestly say I had never seen so many overweight people in one day as I did in Telford Shopping centre.
My darlin' Sheila had some kind of stomach bug last summer and was off her food for about six weeks. In the end I had to give her quite a talking to. At our age, losing weight from the face is not a good move, you never put it back. And, as I told her, her bum started to feel like a bag of spanners,(Happily, that has recovered.)
Comment about Foot sizes is interesting. S is UK size 41/2B, and the only place we can buy shoes the right size is on the internet. Most shops now think that D is a narrow fitting!
However, what goes round comes round, As Liz says, Rubens would have loved present day asses.
