Long time residents of the country will attest to a remarkable increase
in the size of the area referred to by the article - all over the past
10 years or so. (Well - serious students, anyway.)
Most of us put it down to the increase in consumption of junk food
(it's the hormones in the beef, doncha know!)....
But it does coincide with the very start of the mobile phone boom...
So who knows.
Given the high proportion of girls who used to sleep with pegs on their
nose (to make it longer, I kid you not) - and the current distasteful
commercials for an English school which features kids wearing false
white noses - that part of the anatomy too will surely soon be up for
grabs, ringtone wise.
But when it comes to adding length - well - insecure males everywhere
are a market just waiting to be tapped!
