30 Inch Waist Awesome

Today saw the 1st stage of the Goldeneye Torso Honing Program completed.
30 inch waist trousers - great news, or so you’d think !

The falling down jeans syndrome had to be addressed so went out shopping today and chanced my arm and tried on a pair of jeans with a 30 inch waist - spot on - perfect fit - Fab !
The pair I tried had a 32″ leg and I take 34″ but wanted to try them before asking the spotty useless stripling if they had any in the stockroom.

As they fitted I ask:
“Do you have these with a 30 waist and 34 leg ?”
“On no - very rare size, I don’t think we even stock them !”

Tried several other outlets just to see, sure enough none of them stocked the required size - nightmare !
Finally went to a specialist jeans shop and looked around……

“Can I help you?”
“Doubt it”
“What are you looking for”
“Well, I need 30 inch waist and 34 or long leg, but also boot cut”
“What about these ”
“Marvellous - just the style I am after, I’ll try them on”

Perfect fit and great jeans, no compromise, handed over the folding and skipped off happily.
Pictorial evidence of the size is below for any doubters or naysayers, yellow highlights on the critical spots

I may do a post for those wishing to follow my exemplary example of clean living resulting in a Brad Pitt type body :)

    what a sad tale!

    Au contraire mon amie !
    A strict regime of healthy food, exercise and moderate intake of alcohol accounts for this well honed midriff :)

    Typical days food

    Breakfast: 1 pint of pure orange juice, 2 slices of wholemeal bread, 2 free range eggs

    Lunch: Mackerel sandwich

    Dinner: 2 fresh chicken breasts and a whole bundle of broccoli

    Supper: Squashed and fermented grapes ;)

    Start the Goldeneye diet now folks, you know it makes sense !

    ” Be Careful when out in a Strong Wind “

    I prefer the more sporty 36 inch waist myself,
    more weight - feel safer when on a mountain or ski slope !

    ” Squashed and fermented grapes = Claret !

    I’ll run the risk of being blown off a mountain side or ski slope just so lon g as I look sharp in my apre ski clothing :)

    Is that really 36″ ????????
    You know men are notoriously error prone when estimating anything in inches

    Rod,

    Perhaps that’s the answer ….. you could wear your padded ski gear all the time under your normal clothes, thus giving the sought after beefcake silhouette all men aspire to. We’ll test that theory out tomorrow with bubble wrap to see how it looks ………

    WoE

    ARB , 36″ waist…my a**e!! .. LB

    No its true a 36 inch waist ….
    Which is very easy to maintain, not too much exercise, no need to watch what you eat,
    and should you happen to loose a couple of inches around the waist, they are easily put back on with a couple of ” Lincolnshire Pork Pies !

    All the Best,
    ARB.

    ARB,
    I’ve been told on good authority that you are in fact a 38″ er. When I mentioned it-a certain person who shall remain nameless (BC) said, and I quote, “36″ waist-my a**e” !!! -absolutely true.
    You can lie to the internet but not yourself.
