Did anyone else just hear James on Radio 2 news just now talking about men with suitcases on wheels and men with laptop bags on wheels looking like they are dragging digital chi hua hua's (excuse spelling) being saps??
Didn't he talk about this ages ago or have I missed something??

He did! In this column!Why was he on the news? Not a very news worthy item, even on a slow-news-day. |

Because I'm me, I've recorded the rant. I'm curious when this was actually recorded and he is right men who need to wheel laptop bags are ridiculous. My Dad has had to used large suitcases with wheels when he went away for a couple of weeks but that was through my Mum insistence. www.sendspace.com/file/erj6k4 |

It is only available to UK residents. Nope, the radio is available outside the Uk as well. ;D I just listened to it, quite hilarious. James insists that wheeled suitcases are adding to the decline of the British male to the point where he's become little more than a sort of warm respository for storing sperm until it's needed. |

Amazingly, when we went away last year, my hubby and I took one wheeled suitcase between us, and my hubby packed more in it than I did!  |

The stooping to pull them point is valid. I have a male friend who was given a wheeled case and the handle was far too short for him so he ended up folding the handle in and carrying it. It was just the right length for me.
