Hmmm....Hadn't heard of "pear-shaped" meaning "fat-arsed"....! Think it refers rather to the wobbly shape a pear has - which may well match some bottoms.
"Wobbly" is another good one, actually....it's how my British cousin, living in La Belgique, refers to bad driving: eg, "Stop wobbling about in my blind spot, woman!"
Are you sure the bloke said his girlfriend was "sagged"?
Just because "shag" is my most favourite British slang word.
Although....I must confess a liking for slagging people off (but only when they shag with my head and make my life go pear-shaped so I lose the plot).....
Right, it's getting late - I'm off to bedfordshire...
:o)))))))))
