    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.
