According to Google Maps drag-and-measure thingy it's 6649 Egyptian old royal cubits. Or 31.74 American football fields if you prefer.

Are you sure you're measuring between the hotel and the control tower?

Thanks for trying guys.

Tony and I argued about this. He said it was less than one mile and I said it was nearer to two miles. So we set the line at 1.5 miles.

Later in the day, he insisted that we had set the line at 2 miles.   ::)


Just to let you know how bad a loser he is, we argued about what variety a particular tree was. I secretly photographed it on my phone and showed him the photo later, telling him it was a google image of the variety I said our tree was.

He said: Pfft! That's absolutely nothing like the one we saw...

Please!

You said it was FIVE miles!

I said "it is approx 2 miles, perhaps a shade over".

As to that tree stunt you pulled, that was outrageous.

I may never speak to you again.

PS - Coming down to Luton again today? I'll treat you to tea if you do.

I refuse.

He just needs to learn to admit he's wrong. Even when he's not.

It seems to tilt him that I am never wrong.

And we'll have less of your cheek Herbert. You're no spring chicken yourself.

I was in Egypt once, and this chav climbed up the side of a pyramid to impress his mates. Before he did, he stripped to the waist and put his clothes on one of those vast stone blocks at the base.

That was the only time I've ever seen a hoodie on something older that you.

Is the crow going straight to the airport or via anywhere?

Hilarious, I love the idea of the Crow stopping for lunch somewhere :)
