Really? I find that surprising. He was in a wheelchair, frail & had just had jaw surgery and looked awful - near death then. http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/7791/imgai2.jpg (on the far right) If you consider that "not too bad", I'd hate to see what you consider as "looking bad".

Vinegar Tits 606 Posted November 28, 2006 You might remember the story of the lorry driver sentenced to 11 years in a Greek jail for allegedly attempting to smuggle illegal immigrants? Well, he was found hanged on Monday. Very sad as he was a well known figure in my village and I remember all the 'Free Willy' campaigning and fundraising that went on at the time. Mind you, what's perhaps as sad is that by the T&A carelessly printing the son's address, and knowing that area as a complete shithole, he'll probably get burgled during the funeral...
