Cut the size out of the one that fits then it doesnt matter! According to FETCH I am an XXL top already which I find quite offensive, alright I have a bust but I know it isnt that bloody big!! What was the point of losing weight to be offended like that! The girl in the running shop did say today the sizes were very small. Whats the point of having sizes if they are all different yet have the same number. Besides FML there were bigger blokes than you doing that 5k the other night and they were bloody fast!

Veteran in my book is either someone who has been in a war (that could be true actually as feels like a war some days this running lark) or someone collecting a bloody old age pension. They are writing me off before I have even got started! It is bad enough being one of the oldest at work without getting victimised in my hobby as well!
