i know lee's been 
but victory was sweet the main differents must of been presentation the little fine details that lee must of missed as he weighed 39lb dead after trying to weigh himself in 
then screaming the weight was wrong as we took 2 house bricks out and then it was i've lost this and thati did go quiet for a moment as i thought it was close with more
all the way up the bank i took a deep breath and took my first net out knowing it had a low double in it but it did'nt weigh as much as i thought and with a crowd of at least 40 to 50 people started muttering 
untill the second net came out 
with a total weight of 41lb 13oz i had taken the MARS BAR sweet victory from the YAM YAM he's now my bitch
