Height of Summer
I've seen The Height of Summer on quite a few blogs recently and thought I'd like to join in. My Royal Air Force ID card always had me at 170cm which roughly means 5' 7". When I asked The Teenage One to measure my height recently it seems I'm now only 168½cm which is 5' 6" (and a little bit).
Seems I've shrunk a little or the RAF had it wrong for 13 years!!
This is TTO and me at the RAF museum, Hendon (standing next to a Whirlwind helicopter. The type my Dad worked on in the late 1960s, early 70s. Just a little useless info there.)
He measures up to 180½cm or 5' 11 ¼ ". Nearly 6 ft which ever way you look at it.
I did think, looking at this photo, that the old diet needed to be resumed but then I remembered, TTO is as skinny as a rake and has about a 24" waist :0)
Looking good!!! :) I'm 5'7"...well, I was. Should measure again.
ReplyDeleteOh no another one that has shrunk! I am definitely not measuring myself as I am proud of being 5'6". Would be devastated to find out I was shorter :0)
ReplyDeleteI demand a Steward's Inquiry! I am taller than you, so I'm afraid that you makes you more like 5'5" and a bit, whether you like it or not!
ReplyDeleteThe tape measure doesn't lie :0)
ReplyDeleteYou look lovely!
ReplyDeleteAnd so does your tall and handsome boy:)
This has been such a fun series. I am catching up on entries now. I finally sorted my own yesterday and we are very similar in height. I used to be 170cm but seem to have shrunk a smidge over the past few years :-)
ReplyDeleteSo which one of you sisters is the taller then? I need to go back and check lol!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I need to re-measure myself too..quite a few people seem to have lost inches!
