A story in the Metro caught my eye today:
One paragraph in particular leapt out:
Tam Fry, of the National Obesity Forum, said: ‘What we desperately need now is a properly worked out plan which will start to reduce this enormous problem that we have got. The cost is going to be so huge if the figures are not reduced.’
I think what he meant to say was, “what we desperately need now is a proper work out plan that will help these enormous people reduce their huge figures.”
Possibly reduce their use of calorie related adjectives as well? I hear they’re fattening.

G’luck with this year’s NaNoWriMo!

The solution is obviously to sack this Mr Fry and replace him with Mr Healthily-Steam.
