Title: of pigs and men
Post by: banbh on June 03, 2010, 10:54:59 am

I weighed the pigs at 5 months old. GxGxL/400. And then /2.2 =53kg. Quite pleased with this, they are lean and spend a lot of time rooting and browsing. I think 2 or 3 months more will see them at killing weight.

I then measured myself with the same formula. Came up with 9.5 stone when in fact I'm 12.5 stone. This means I cannot be a pig. ;D

I think a lot of ladies would like that formula - it makes their weight a lot less that they actually are .....and no need for slimming clubs then!!!

Banbh i used the same formula GxGxL but multiplied by 69.4 and that gives you the kilo weight.
