Weighty Matters


When Mike's wife Linda was expecting their first child, she had a major (but very brief) scare. Having represented India at basketball, she was pretty fit, but even she didn't see this hurdle coming. She and Mike had dropped our eldest brother Keith to Begumpet airport and while they were waiting for Keith to check in for his flight, Linda decided it was time for a weigh-in.

So she gracefully stepped on the scales - and promptly got the shock of her life. Her weight had practically doubled in the space of a week. She was about to step off the scales hurriedly, when she realised Keith was convulsed with laughter.

Yep, he'd put one foot on the scale as well.
