...You what? The average male height in the UK is 5'9". In what universe is a 6 inch difference "slight"?
What I mean is that it was not even remotely unusual to see people my own height or taller, especially within my generation. Here its very rare to see anybody over 6 foot. The average height of men here is 56m and the average height of women is 51. My wife is 410. People are just smaller here.
