   I had a girl friend when I was young who had Italian parents. This girl was   
   a real stunner and you could not fault her looks neither face or figure. She   
   also had a very sweet nature. After I had married my first wife I was in   
   Edinburgh and was greeted by her in The Meadows. I couldn't believe it, she   
   must have been all of 22 stone and had a long stream of her brood trailing   
   behind her.
