Often wondered that myself, can't be a Large Overweight Person!
Fit as a Butchers Dog is easier to understand.
Hills and Guinness!
Lop, or 'Loppe' is apparently Middle English and just another word for flea.
ah i c, makes sense, cheers
Learn summatt new every day, funny how folk use sayings without knowing what they mean, it's only when you get older you think 'wtf have i just said'!
Or sometimes the morning after
Hills and Guinness!
Never heard of "fit as a lop" nor have I heard of "fit as a flea" I suppose fleas are quite fit though.
Never seen a fat un.

50 in 50 tonight with a half headtorcher up over ogden moor in the misty drizzle. I took a bit of a risk parking in the ogden water car park which advertises itself as being locked at 7 pm but fortunately when I got back at 6:57 from what was probably a five mile run with the hound (of the baskervilles on the moor tonight) the car park gate was still open, although my car was the only one there. I think I need to park by the pub from now on.
Mileage so far:
Week 1 -> 51 miles
Week 2 -> 39 miles
Week 3 -> 38 miles
Week 4 -> 44 miles
Week 5 -> 39 miles
Week 6 -> 52 miles
Week 7 -> 37 miles
Week 8 -> 5 miles so far

Well done Stolly, are you going for Ron Hill's record running streak?
Do you not get missed at home?
