One would think a diet of bread and water would do wonders for her condition. And, sorry to be pedantic and that, but...her legal problems simply motivated her to put on weight. Nobody actually tied her down and shoved the food in. And she has been jailed. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/586200/Morbidly-obese-30st-driver-too-fat-for-prison-jailed-killing-jogger

Exactly the same thing happened here too, very weird. Quantick's revenge? I had it, I'm guessing they thought they'd sneak it on, gain a few more hits for their website. Although I'm thinking if I ever give up the DL and go back to having sex, I'd probably look good in nothing but a toolbelt...

Came across this from April: http://chorleywoodmagazine.co.uk/liftetime-achievement-award-for-jack-smethurst/ There's a pic of Biggins, Smethurst and Cryer there. And I've got two of them on my DDP. Knowing my tendency to pick survivors, Biggins will go before the end of 2015!
