Sure... and i also think we should be paying for the, fork lift trucks and jugger wagons to get them there...! After all there is nothing like working up an appitite, and if they can do the bop, they will earn some Kens mucky fried chicken for on their way home...!

Good idea I think. Get people fit doing fun things and it'll save a (potato) wedge a few years down the line. They may of course turn up and do **** all except eat pies, but it's worth a punt.

It's the diets that need changing. Far too many calories consumed and from unsuitable sources.

That works for sensible people, but if a GP has tried all sorts and offers a few dance classes it might do the trick. Much cheaper in the long run then heart by-passes. I see no value in cutting of our nose to spite our face; chubby or otherwise.

Very true indeed, the first sentence. People who are obese/overweight know it and if nothing else has caused them to change their ways I doubt if dance classes will. It will be the best thing since sliced bread for the first few weeks and then a chore like anything else they may have tried. Ultimately the change will come from within and not from anything else IMHO.

It'd be even worse if some of the fat ones didn't have many points, but other fatties a had farkin' hundreds for no apparent reason.

Fat women should be allowed them but only if they stop stuffing their disgusting faces

fat feks should pay more for flights

everyone has a baggage allowance

why should i pay an extra 30 quid if im a few kilos over if i weigh 10 stone less than the fat b@stard who cant stop once he pops those pringles

i really dont want to sit next to who takes up my elbow room and makes me get up 10 times during the flight so she can spray the toilet 'autumn brown'

Lord Shrek.....why do i always sit behind the bloke with the biggest head at the cinema
