 All us yanks find this very colourful, but even us guys dat got real big
vocabularies don't got no idea what that works out to in pounds or kilos or
kilos or whether that's "Big 16" or "Big 5w". >>

       Ten and a half stone = 147 lbs = approx 66.5 kg
       So, about typical adult male human weight (which is kind of big for a
dog!) Mebbe Large 10 to reflect its bulky shape by comparison with a human,
but not that big on a HW scale.

Forward the glorious Red Army
