when they are not pissed off.

If a person is walking around huffing and they are not asthmatic or overweight or anything like that then is it fair to assume they've got a shit on?

I want you to know that I had a horrible image of someone huffing and puffinf in a toilet, in order to use said facility.

Maybe they're practising Breathing, à la yoga classes, or those Breath Your Baby Out videos?

I did actually typo 'a shit in' to start with.... [hgrin]

Well, maybe it's just a 'Sunday Huff 'n Puff'? ....lots that needs doing, can't be arsed, work tomorrow, practically dark already, fed up... huff 'n puff'

I think that's fair. Who is huffing?

pickled : A party that claims not to have a shit on.

Apparently I do. So my mum says. I don't know I'm doing it but evidently it sounds aggressive. I'm not terribly overweight either. Grin

I'm in a bit of a 'Huff 'n Puff' mood myself. It's cold, everything is taking longer/being harder work than it should be. The hoover is staring at me in a pointed way, the washing machines just beeped to say it's done and I've run out of room to hang another load (I don't have, don't like and don't want a tumble dryer), it's cold... did I mention that already? It's almost dark and not even bloody 4 o'clock. I have to go to work tomorrow, it's going to be a long day & I don't want to go.... My head feels a bit heavy, I'm tired. A 'friend in need' might be coming to stay, which I don't mind one bit, but I need to go and make up the spare room so it's ready if she does (I'm happy to have her stay, but having just had one guest her for 3 months have only just got the house back to myself... so yeah - there's some 'Huffing & Puffing' g

Oh - sorry - laptop playing up (to add to my list of whinges), it's posted that half written post! LOL

But you get the gist... Grin

I do it a lot, because for some reason I hold my breath without realising it, then a minute or so later I have to release the air.

I do it in my sleep too. DP wakes me up because he's scared I'll die. Bless
