Half Fare

I asked Nige if he wanted any breakfast today, because some days he comes down for some.
"No," he said “I’ve got to cut down.”
“I should too.”
“No,” said Nige “I weighed myself last night and got a shock.”
“How much?”
“A big shock.”
“No, I mean numbers.”
“Seventeen stone.”
“That’s getting on for Clive size.”
“He’s about nineteen isn’t he?” Neil chipped in.
“They were talking about charging him double on the buses.”
“I’m only eleven.” Adds Neil
“You should qualify for half fare then.”
