Well, have you ever met a 17 tog duvet? Nope. What? No that's two duvets and 13 and a 4 tog combined, not a 17 tog.

How about a size 17 dress? Nope!

Or a 17 wheeler truck? Nope!

Or a pack of 17 toiler rolls? Nope!

Or a 17 month subscription to a magazine? Nope!

And why not? Because 17 has the most wonderful characteristic that I so greatly admire. It just cannot be bothered to drag itself out of bed. Hence there are so many places we just don't have a 17. And I applaud it's laziness.

Not convinced? Have you ever seen 17 sleep? No?

Oh yes you have! You see when 17 settles down for a snooze, it lays the 1 horizontally and snuggles into it. What do you see? Z! Yup, the famous Zs are actually snoozing 17's.

What a wonderful number!
17 on Friday does not allow marriages and departures! Lazy bastard!

Am I waiting for you to arrive at magic 16?

Yes I am.
