Well, the Dictionary is the clear winner with 6 votes for the man with the
slender physique, but the honour of dealing the next round goes to Paul
Keating who scored 5 unnatural points, followed closely by Tim Bourne and
Dan Widdis each with 4.
(Promise to self :- I shall never again categorise my list of definitions
.... it seems to backfire every time! <g>)
Take it away Paul
Best wishes all
