OK, this thumb thing

- can I include my fingernail if it protrudes beyond the flesh ??
- where is the base of the thumb from which the measurement is commenced ?? (can I go down to the wrist so as to give me a meaningful outcome ?)

Which brings me onto the subject of how do you measure the corresponding appendage ?? There are several starting points, which one do you use ?? Always confused on this one !!

start from the sack and work up.

Is the ultimate end of the the thumb the shoulder joint?

I've spent far too long this morning thinking about this!! The men in the office are a bit perplexed as to why I asked them to hold their hands up.....

Wolfette is to blame.

Why not just measure the real thing?

Was that you in the BBC Sport quotes of the week?

That penis thing is true

Kind regards

I heard something similar, ponder this one.

If you do an L shape with your thumb and index finger almost like your pointing a gun, the length from the tip of your thumb to the tip of the index finger is well you know the rest.

Yes that was her...she gets everywhere..

Because I'd get the sack, they frown on stuff like that here.

And yes sir, t'was me indeed. Well spotted, eagle eyes!

Those rumours are unfounded.

You should have gone into nursing...
