But now Scots have the perfect excuse for their expanding waistlines — it is all the fault of the dreary weather.
A team of scientists at Aberdeen University has found that Scotland’s dismal weather makes it more difficult for people to shed those extra pounds.
Their research suggests that overweight people tend to have lower levels of vitamin D in their blood than their slimmer counterparts.
The most natural source of vitamin D is from sunlight but, because the sun makes such a rare appearance in Scotland, fat people are less likely to benefit from this slimming aid.

Nope...it's definately the chips......

That makes perfect sense as you never see a fat american.

And I thought it might be something to do with the glut of battered mars bars.
