Forum Support Popular Post Mike J Posted October 18, 2021 Forum Support Popular Post Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) You realize you are taller than most everyone else when you see yourself in a photo. And I am only 5'8" (173 cm). Edited October 18, 2021 by Mike J 2 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted October 19, 2021 Forum Support Posted October 19, 2021 This is so true Mike. How many of us here don't notice the height difference between their wife and themselves until seen in a picture? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one issue I don't really have, SWMBO's family are all tall (for filipinos) and SWMBO is 5 foot 5 inches (165cm) which is almost dead on the average height of Australian women and I'm only 5 foot 8 myself. In CDO she could play basketball though Edited October 19, 2021 by GeoffH 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettGC Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 AM (Angry Midget - wife) is 4'10", 45kg and the only thing on this planet I'm scared of! I'm only 172cm (5'7.5") but I tower over her and most of her family. It has its advantages, last time we were in Dumaguete, the only room available where we normally stay on the esplanade only had king single beds... Didn't matter, given her size it felt like we were in a queen 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnMyWay Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 Ok, let's go off topic for you short guys! I'm 6'2" and used to play a lot of ball with a friend who was also my workout buddy one year. He was skinny and 5'6", with moves like Muggsy. I never had a chance! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Popular Post Mike J Posted October 19, 2021 Author Forum Support Popular Post Posted October 19, 2021 Prior to my first visit to the Philippines my wife and I were chatting via the net. She ask me how tall I was in cm? She said he needed to know so she could find some male office mates the same height "and practice standing next to them". 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Mike J Posted October 20, 2021 Author Forum Support Posted October 20, 2021 Hung a mirror in the CR of my in=laws house. I could only see myself from the chin down it was so low. Papa says "the mirror is so high I cannot even see myself". Papa has since passed, wonderful man, all 4'5" (135 cm) of him was filled with wisdom and compassion. Wonderful things come in small packages, including people. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I put my rice in the middle of the plate, dump what ever the other part of the meal is on top, grab a spoon and start shoveling..... Waste of time and effort to do it the pinoy way 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
