    At least toe clippings can be kicked aside. I find it far worse to see a bus driver and passengers (yes they both do it), with a finger stuck up their noses wondering where they are going to deposit the “pickings”. That is far worse than a gum spitting, nail clipping, B O covered citizen of any country.

    Now you mention it VK. Add a few years and a few kilo’s!! Sorry Simon 😉

    England not doing that well at the moment against India, so I’m upset I cancelled my appointment this afternoon with the chiropodist!

    VK,

    I wish I’d been as good as Gordon Brittas!

    Lugano,

    I’ll have you know that Chris Barrie (who played Gordon) is exactly 2 days younger than me, although he may be in considerably better shape.

    I preferred him in Red Dwarf, though. I wish I could have run a spaceship rather than a couple of leisure centres…..

    I thought he was older than you Simon. I was being kind!

    I never knew he was in Red Dwarf and as I looked at his bio I’m surprised at how many roles he played or hosted, including Massive Machines which I enjoyed without realising he was “Gordon”!

    A bit off subject, but to keep on track, I’m sure he cuts his nails as well???

    I would imagine Gordon Brittas has a pair of gold-plated clippers, specially designed to collect the clippings to avoid any detritus.
