Heh.  My doctor tells me I'm eight stone overweight, and that the optimum
weight for my 6'3" is 14 stone.  Except he says it in those nasty French
measurements.  14 stone.  Yeah right.  I'm 22 stone, and could maybe do
with losing one, perhaps two.  But not eight!  Those of you who've seen
me, can you really imagine me over a hundred pounds lighter?  There'd be
nothing left!
