C is definitely right, our spines compress during the course of the day so best to measure your height first thing in the morning. Fond memories of How - There was also a lady and a bit of a boffin-y guy but can't remember their names. Just checked - it was Bunty (not Sally) James and Jon Miller. Yes, great shirt - no uncomfortable morning coats for you guys!Alysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671033552961486737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-85660686806276683612018-10-19T22:03:57.615+01:002018-10-19T22:03:57.615+01:00*Any**Any*Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-80542253294557232172018-10-19T22:03:23.717+01:002018-10-19T22:03:23.717+01:00Ah, How!
