You might want to watch talking about pot plants with Americans.  If I
hadn't been exposed to Aussie English, I'd have thought your in-laws were
growing marijuana....

Besides, 11s aren't that big.  They're about the same as the size marked on
my favorite trainers, translated into womens'.{G} That particular pair is
from a brand that runs rather small, but still....  Then again, my father
wore size 13 dress shoes and I have male friends who wear 16s and 17s.  Us
bigfoots don't know how the rest of y'all balance on those little tiny
things.
