We could invite in guest posters such as Mr Cholmondly-Warner to discuss topics such as the best materials for constructing a Smoking Jacket, which pipe tobacco is the most fragrant and our preferred type of port. Is that the sort of thing you had in mind?

There are quite a few Sky chanels "for men" even "Films4Men" and they are all full of utter tripe so I don't even bother looking now. I'm guessing they think "Dave" is for men but it has repeats of all the programs I like so ............. just call me Dave (said in a deep gruff voice)

Try sticking a 'w' at the beginning

Getting back to frontloading drysuits for women with an ample bosom ...



never posed any problems for me



but the braces frequently ping undone

As a rather slender female with a rather ample frontage ….. I volunteer to perform a test on the compression (or not) of said ample frontage when using a front loading dry suit

But, you’ll have to lend me the suit

which is why you MUST remember to ask to be zipped up!!!!!

The correct course of action, in my humble opinion is to either point said 'lady' to the direction of YD and get her to post her own questions OR you offer her what she is quite clearly angling for, namely a private examination in the compressor shed, complete with pretend zips, breast squashing & a 'round the upperbody bear hug' (measurement ). Then, if she persists, get the Dud to give a second opinion.

She may find her acoutrements are not so large after all
Rest assured that not only did the lady have her "bit of fluff" in close proximity, but Missus Janos was around so I don't think that's the cause. But nice of you to say

She was told by another female club member, who also has a large chest, that front-zipping drysuits were painfull across the chest but I've no idea if this is Chinese whispers or not so I thought I'd ask YD.

I said that I knew several women who wore front-loaders, but then was asked "and how big are their tits" and then I turned pink and retreated...

of course. It would only be full of vulgarities, football, and all manner of other boring shite.
Anything you wanted us to comment upon wouldn't be in that subsection.

'fraid I agree. It's a laugh from time to time, but it becomes tedious when repeated too often.
