Sauce for the gander: part 2

Displacement activity: I took up smoking when I gave up fucking with other people's lives

Following on from my last post, I have discovered a new, enjoyable pastime: crudely manipulating photos of anti-smoker control-freaks. Here's Deborah Arnott, director of ASH, whose image - for no fee - I have enhanced. With the new look, she is immediately more approachable.

So if you see her, remember to ask: "'scuse me love, have you got a light?"

"She was fond of the occasional cigarette until 2003, when she decided to leave a job in TV production and devote her working life to the anti-smoking struggle.

"I smoked Silk Cut," she says, "which probably shows my age."

James, I'm beginning to regret my actions, she's not exactly easy on the eye.

Quite, TT. I was eating my breakfast. Perhaps a health warning...

Someone got Deborah Arnott pregnant.

He deserves an immediate DSO.

I really, really hope that she outlives her children. All of them.

Actually, with that photo and the "enhancement", it also gives the impression of really really greasy hair.

Do you think you could add a bag of chips to this?

that would also give the transfat/salt lobbies conniptions - everyone wins!

PG,

I have only opened the way, I will leave it to others to add the chips and perhaps a bottle of Buckfast.
