And getting back to the 2m rule we work closer then that on the shop floor!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can also use your fingers to wipe your bottom when there is not a toilet roll in sight, but a crumpet in your hands is a thing of wonder! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However I have had a go and your right, I am tall, here's a Mick Kilby pic.of me at the Mike Broadbank training track '67. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
