Notes for Sidney Wood BODINGTON

He was five feet tall and had a 60 inch waist. He was like a weeble. He was an alcoholic but a functioning one. He had heart failure, not surprising seeing his size. On the morning of his death he was in hospital and the dietician came around and told him not to drink beer but that he could drink spirits. That afternoon the senior dietitian came and told him no spirits either, his response was to grown and he never breathed another breath. Prior to the senior dietitian visiting him, he was bright, talking laughing and being Grandad. I have never known anything like it. It was like him saying "bugg*r that!" [389]
