        Me and my mate in uni wanted to try the navvy diet one day.

        8000 calories

        Breakfast: 6 slices of bacon, 2 pints of beer, can of condensed milk, tea, loaf of bread.

        Early elevenses: 1 pint of beer.

        Late elevenses: 1 pint of beer, bread and butter.

        Lunch: steak, loaf of bread, 2 pints of beer, tea.

        Late lunch: 1 pint of beer.

        Snack: bread and butter, 1 pint of beer.

        Dinner: steak, boiled potatoes, loaf of bread, 2 pints of beer, tea.

        But we was going to stop short of the 20 ton of material those guys moved a day. That’s proper grafting what those boys did.

        Anyway the fucker (my mate) got a girlfriend and I never seen him again so we didn’t do it.
