Hi Beags. Recently I had the honour of taking a waz in the gents in the fire section at Boscombe Down. There was chart on the wall, above the tall porcelain things, which was headed "Level of Dehydration".

It was essentially a graded colur chart ranging from pale straw coloured to mahogany.

The idea was when you had a waz you could check the colour and refer to the chart to see how dehydrated you were.

For most of us it doesn't matter, if we are a bit dehydrated we just lie down and take an aspirin, or one of those big fizzy tablet things.

But for firemen whose office is often a burning inferno at a high temperature it seems it's a good idea to know how dehydrated you are before you go into the office. (Not stools but the other things).

Then I had a delightful Sunday lunch BBQ with a slightly strange Clergyman and his family (Think Adams Family with Archbishop of Canterbury blessing). It wasn't a Weber but it was tasty.

Happy days.
