Hudson-Thompson Tan Test ©

Eric Hudson had his legs out at the station showing off his suntan, he’s been in Tenerife; Brian had his shorts on too trying to get a tan, he’s been in Swanage. It's fair to say Eric beats Brian hands down on the tan although he’s being pushed hard by Terry Thompson. Terry's head is as brown as a hot cross bun, although without the cross, and no raisins....or orange peel come to think of it.

In order to stop disputes as to who is the brownest I’ve decided to implement the Hudson-Thompson Tan Test © which will be based on a colour chart by a well known wood stain manufacturer. This will allow HM Coastguard tans to be graded fairly.

At the moment Eric’s legs are somewhere between an ‘Oxford Brown’ and ‘Saddle Tan’, whereas Terry’s bonce is closer to ‘Redwood’ than ‘Sequoia’.

I’m afraid Brian’s legs are currently ‘Cape Cod Grey’ although he’ll probably be ‘Harvest Brown’ by July.



Courtsey of http://www.austinqualityfencestaining.com/ no seriously it is!


...and again I'm so dead for this down the station.
