It reminds me of a tubby, barrel shaped man, in a t suit, holding a brandy.

would you look at home sat in the middle of a monopoly board?

Do you lust for a rotund chap of meaningful stature?

Maybe they were trying to be polite and not ask 'whose the fat bastard in the corner?'

Agreed. Portly to me suggests older. Not just in age. In lookout too.

Falstaff is portly. It's clearly a literary allusion.

They were trying to be nice, where if they was to be honest, you would of been called a fat bastard.

Puts me in mind of a character in a P.G. Wodehouse novel. I don't think it's a bad word though, does imply a bit of character and breeding.
