Now, we all know that Amrie loves her calcium.

BUT, she does not like little crunchy calcium bits in the bottom of her tea cup. She will be investing in a nifty little fine-mesh strainer, she thinks, when she returns from her diverting journey.

Story on the news tonight re: a woman weighing 42 stone. The expert interviewed from the Obesity Awareness Solutions Trust (which, if you switch the letters around, makes the acronym OATS. And if you could add 'The', could spell 'toast' -- tee hee hee), said that obesity is a very complex issue. It is so exceedingly complex that this statement has left me confused. As has the video of the 42-stone woman eating her lunch, which included a large plate of sliced (and, no doubt, buttered) bread.
