I know it may sound sad, but i was quite chuffed to see I was snapped at the weekend, so I thought I would share it. BTW, this is at the end of 8.75 miles, 2600ft climb:

From the English-to-American dictionary:

chuff v. To chuff is to fart. Entirely seperate to the word chuffed so use with care.

chuffed adj. Someone who describes themselves as being chuffed is generally happy with life. You can also get away with saying you are unchuffed or dischuffed if something gets your back up. Make sure you only use this word in the correct tense and familiarise yourself with the meaning of the word chuff too.

OK, I think I got it... My boys are generally chuffed right after they chuff... Tongue

No ... seriously, you can be both chuffed (happy) or dischuffed (not happy) ... and both have no link to 'gas'. You can also be 'chuffed off' (another form of dischuffed).

We live and learn.

Sometimes after a really good chuff I feel chuffed. Eddy, you've done great with WW's. Are your friends telling you that you've lost too much weight yet?

It's funny you say that, because yeah, they all keep going on at me, It really gets on my nerves. I personally want to lose more, to get to my optimum running weight. I am happy with the way I look, I cant win, one minute I am called a fat ******, the next, a skinny ******
I think it is just that by comparison I am thinner, certainly not skinny. I don't know why they say that.
