Lol! Good one.

But it's the 'ole 'eating tuna will make you thinner' ploy.

Question - what about the gallon of mayo you need to go with the tuna?

Because tuna on its own gets pretty boring.

I could have been her double for this advert!
Nice one.

Cat, not keen on tuna, not that I'm watching my weight either, I'm rapidly re-expanding back to old levels whilst back home. Mike, same here, we're all guilty of sucking the gut in!

Mike, somehow I don't see you as her double ;-)

Yes, TP, an explosive weight gain is a sure thing when back home. When I first arrived back home in April, the first thing many people said was how much slimmer I looked, almost too much so. I haven't heard that in many weeks now, even from those who had yet to see me. It doesn't take long to ruin one's boyish figure :-)

LOL, I have had no problem slotting back into the eating patterns of the English, 7 cups of tea a day, too many fried breakfasts, Sunday roasts etc. In total I've lost about 15 lbs over the year, but I reckon I can put half that back on before flying back in a weeks time ;) You hear about these method actors etc putting on / losing loads of weight for a film, haha, easy .... spend 6 months in Thailand.

Ben you really have to get out into the garden more often, leave the curtains open and you'll still be able to see the TV. Another classic Thai commercial and one that's played out several times real life each day by young office girls returning from their lunchtime feast. I tend to put on a few pounds when I visit Thailand but thats beers to the tuna seven or eight large bottles a day, plus some Jack.

Christ. If I got through eight bottles of Leo plus Mr JD I would be throwing the TV out the window and swinging with the jack fruits; another side effect of living in Smiley Land I've found, I've lost my boozing belts; I'm now reduced to competing in the lighter weights ..... ;)

I was more imagining Mike in the tight skirt and shirt she was wearing.

And now I have you in my head too!

No I don't wear skirts. Honest. Can't speak for Mike. I have noticed he has written a lot about Khatoeys lately tho.

(haha ;)
