Noticed this aswell. Would be interesting to know. I don't know for what purpose, but interesting all the same ;D


For the record, im 6ft 1" and 9.5 Stone

Never owned anything smaller than my Oil burning Chavalier runner.


I love all my Omegas. Added bonus is being able to fit passengers 4 passengers (heavy set or not) in along with all the luggage needed for a long weekend.

O', and I squeeze mine and my mates clubs and trollies in with no fuss :y

It's all wrong that 50% of the population are being made to feel bad because 1% is actually very unhealthy. Having a BMI of 25-30 is actually not a good indicator for illness or premature death. But people above 25  are the new smokers. The average UK resident has a BMI of 25.4. (BBC News) (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6148456.stm)


I am 6' 1" and 13 1/2 stone. If I was 1 1/2 stone more, I would probably say I am 6' 1" and 'cuddly'. My BMI would still only be 27.5...

Well people, the answers are in.

28 people provided personal information. Of these, 27 were male..! (Edit - very sorry Ljay, I missed you in the 1st post :-[)

Of these, 7 described their weight in words or did not disclose.

The average height of an OOFER is 6' 1/4"
The average weight is 14st 10lbs
The average BMI is 27.4
(We would make a good rugby team)

Compared to the average male Brit.
We are fully 3 1/4 inches taller than
We weigh 2st 6lbs more.
And our BMI is 2.0 more.

Compared to the average female Brit
Ljay is 3 1/2 inches taller!  :)

Good job then that we have nice big comfy cars with sufficient power to propel our extra mass.
