Gym user upset at cover-up call A sports enthusiast was told not to wear vests at a council gym because the sight of "big hairy armpits" would upset other users. Anthony Ward, 41, said he was told by an instructor to wear T-shirts instead of a vest while using gym equipment at Horfield Leisure Centre, Bristol. Mr Ward, a gym member for two years, vowed to continue wearing vests. A Bristol City Council spokeswoman said vests were not banned but gym users are being advised not to wear them. 'Completely ridiculous' The father-of-one from Horfield, Bristol, was undergoing an induction session on some new equipment at the recently-refurbished centre. "At the start of the session the female instructor said that men should wear T-shirts rather than vests as sweat could cause the equipment to rust.

Attitudes like theirs are why so many of us despair I fancy! However, this is the wrong board for a rant like that.
Also I'm sorry but the word sports and enthusiast should never be seen in the same sentence!
As for the resemblance to Chopper, hmmm I see where you would get that from my eeevilll seeester! Ve vill rule ze virld viz zees hairy men! Ha HA Ha........
*sorry everyone - must take the pills more often!*

When the lights are out, who knows what it looks like, who cares- just don't turn the light on.
