If people find buying socks boring, then believe me they're buying the wrong socks.

I'm still stuck on 'bowels".

It has now evolved into an Olympic sport in my mind. Oldies having to give samples to prove they haven't doped on Syrup of Figs.

This could be bigger than Quidditch...

Just need some rules now.
