Stone Me!


We're off to sunny climes early on Monday.
Was sorting out some summer clothes today to pack in me bag for the trip.
It's been two years since our last sun holiday.
It's been two years since I was twelve and a half stone!
The shorts that once fitted a trim twelve and a half stone Mapster do not fit a fourteen stone Mapster!
Thing is, the fourteen stone Mapster is not as much concerned about his weight as the twelve and a half stone Mapster used to be!
Roll on Monday, and good times! :¬)

    Use my utter ignorance (and refusal to check) what a stone translates to in pounds because it SOUNDS skinnier than pounds. :)

    Go have fun! Weight is not allowed to be discussed on holiday. ;)

    hope; There are 14 lbs (pounds) in a stone, therefore there are 196 lbs (pounds) in a Mapstew! :¬)

    I am not much of a guy who thinks in so deeply about web design but I think your post had some valid points in it. Like designers are forced to design stuff within the limited code available and not go beyond it, their innovation is somewhat limited but still I think Web Design won't die! I agree that Amazon and other some big sites won't have a blog but now a days it's very important to have some sort of option available so people can quickly communicate their thoughts.
