Is it just me or is her head a bit too big for her body?

Maybe the poor girl is perfectly happy with her weight and appearance and you should stop judging people.

Maybe.

May I ask (and I just have)… is it ‘knocking shop’ or ‘knock in shop’… I always thought the latter, but not sure why. Anyone?

  Knock shop or knocking shop, unless situate in Knock itself in which case you get a bottle of holy water and three Our Fathers free with each purchase.

    As I separately told both a relative and a friend that I was going to Knockanstockan festival, both cut across me and say “You’re going to Knock??”
    
    It would have been rather a lifestyle change, shall we say

  Damn!!!

Its kinda pathetic the way some folk feel the need always to comment on females body weight, why is it any of your business what weight the girl is, attractiveness is subjective, so why don’t all you sexist donkeys get a life, oh and maybe eat some humble pie instead of a sandwich
