Sorry but this is a bit rambling. Also maybe distinctly odd but most must be used gto that from me by now. Anyway...

After weighing myself I was sad to note an unwanted increase. Several reasons/excuses. Christmas temptations coupled with less exercise with the weather and pulling a tendon slightly making walking a bit painful and something to avoid where possible. I recalled the phrase "big boned" being an excuse for some. Hold that phrase.

Not a diversion but needed background. I'm pretty familiar with the Harry Potter world having seen the films and listened to the audio books. In that world there are giants which range in height from the titchy ones of 16 feet upwards. One of the main characters, Hagrid, is a half giant. He met up with a lady half giant who was offended when he asked if it was her mother or father who was the giant and came up with the "big boned" excuse.

For reasons unknown that big boned coupled in my mind as I looked at my weight increase and a very odd thought followed...

16 foot plus. Half giant.

:wtf:  HOW???

Sorry. Get on with your day. Please forget all about this. I'm having problems doing so.

Do try to get Harry Potter's giants out of your head m'dear.   
Sit down, and have a cup of tea, and we will get Matron to bring your pills.   :grin:
