That jinxy **** monty.
Let's string him up.
Did I ever tell you about my idea for a Viz-style comic strip entitled 'Wainwright's Wànks', in which the fell-bothering curmudgeon is constantly trying to find a quiet place in the Lake District in which to knock one out, only to be repeatedly disturbed by tourists, school parties, dogs, search and rescue helicopters, etc?
I think the idea came to me because I read one of his books and he came across as such a miserable wànker. I mean I'm as misanthropic as the next cûnt, but he genuinely appeared to resent the presence of anyone at all on the same mountain as him - while writing books designed to attract people to climb up said mountains.
Certainly. It is interesting that the difference in lung performance is pretty marginal. I believe that if you smoke tabs and don't exercise, you will be a wheezing cripple, but if you're fit, you're fit, fags or no.
Indeed, I suspect that the whole, 'smoking is bad for you' thing is a load of old cobblers.
Nevertheless, I currently choose not to indulge.
When I hiked the Inca Trail many years ago my tour group consisted of a bunch of lads from Somerset who had been heavily on the lash the night before the trek began, and a fat bird from Australia. On all five days I was the second from last to reach camp, only saved from complete humiliation by the fat Aussie :-(
I am quite the stylish vapeur. The glw has a device which is adjustable and able to expel splendidly huge clouds; I favour a simpler, stick-like device.
We're down to the lowest nicotine level now. I can see the day coming when we'll sack the whole thing off.
One day I may well return to the fags, of course. I like fags.
The discrepancies I find these days between his descriptions and my experience say much about my increasing reluctance to enjoy peril. So his "boring, grassy trudge" is my "pleasant, relaxing stroll" while his "exhilarating scenery" is my "treacherous crest of rock with certain death all around at the first slip of a boot".
