I'm just under 5ft 10in, which used to be considered well above average for a man. But so many are so tall these days that I often find myself facing, if that's the word, women towering well above me. In these circumstances I really find myself streching up on tiptoe during turns to clear that carefully coiffed (sp?) hair. On several occasions in early days I failed and destroyed in a fraction of a second that which had taken minutes in front of the mirror to achieve. The shame of it.

Now that I have a little more time to think I consciously try keep my eye on that handhold where possible and keep it 2 or 3 ins above the ladies highest point. Now, what's that in centimetres?
