Not intended as a criticism. I'm probably three Dobbies and an OB.

Hang on, I think we're getting in a muddle, I was referring to metric OBs. One weighs the same as an imperial OB but I don't think they're the same in terms of Dobbies.

Well, as I'm not a member of the STEM master race, I'm afraid I'm a bit weak on the metric/imperial OB - Dobby conversion. In imperial terms, one Dobby is 21 micro-elves, whereas an imperial OB is only 20 micro-elves. In my day, a micro-elf used to be called a sock. Not sure why.

Well that's just plain confusing, socks vary in size and weight enormously. They really should have put some thought into this.

Yes, time to rationalise measurement completely. To have an OB based system of measurement in the 21st century is simply medieval.
I just won Division 2 promotion with Swansea. Thoughts?

Seeing as last night's offer of a hot drink was turned down... How about a glass of cider? You seem like a cider chap.

I've only got the cheap stuff in at the moment. Seriously, I swear it's stronger than paint stripper. It seems to be slowly dissolving the glass bottle the longer I ignore it.

Aberlour Single Malt?
If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?

Headhunted. Yes it does.

Right after the uni? What's your degree?
