Hibeedeb May 2021 4:23pm, 25 May 2021 105 posts	0 Hibeedeb Yes, I'm in the "like to lose about a stone" camp, except I use kg and voted against Brexit, or would have done had I not fled the country in anticipation of the outcome of the vote I would also have not looked at this thread with the current title. Fetch - I'm wondering - does this happen often, that someone contacts you about a thread title? Would asking for input before the change have been a possibility? It has generated some good debate though for sure.

However, on establishing that, I have suggested that the thread comes up with its own title, and I’d be happy to go with that, so long as it’s half reasonable

Mouseytongue May 2021 7:15pm, 25 May 2021 7,710 posts	0 Mouseytongue Perhaps we could just revert to the original title and forget the discourtesy of changing it at the behest of ONE person when many fare-paying passengers have contributed for 10 years in good humour. Anyway, I'm off for a walk with my Norman Cook playlist!

SjohnA May 2021 7:20pm, 25 May 2021 329 posts	0 SjohnA How about: Inbetweenies - (but also including outbetweenies so no one feels left out) who are trying to lose about a stone (or not). Is that inclusive enough?
SjohnA May 2021 7:21pm, 25 May 2021 330 posts	0 SjohnA I will probably get slated for this but anyone who complains about the words skinny and fat git should be more worried about health aspects than the words.
