It's bad enough that I keep seeing people wearing pajama pants out in public, but they've got nothing on these folks. All pics from Poorly Dressed People of the World, all captions by me, Bev.













Already 17 feet in diameter, and weighing 750 kilograms, the giant pumpkin grown by Ian and Stuart Paton is set to become the new world’s largest pumpkin. Twin brothers Ian and Stuart Paton have been growing giant pumpkins for the last 30 years, and this year they think one of their pumpkins could actually set a new world record. Tipping the scale at 750 kilograms, and growing by around 13 kilograms every day, this giant pumpkin is already heavier than a Fiat 500. The Paton brothers of Lymington, Hampshire, hope their produce can “put on enough weight” by the official weighing, on Saturday, to beat the old record of 784 kilos. It has already beat the British and European records and by their calculations it could soon be the world’s heaviest pumpkin. Their pumpkins have been getting bigger each year, as they’ve been learning new tricks about how to grow and breed them. This might just be their year.


A woman in the UK is reportedly suing supermarket giant Asda after she allegedly found a frog in a bottle of wine purchased at one of its stores. Isolde Beesley of Leicestershire said the small frog fell out of a bottle of Moscatel de Valencia Spanish wine as she poured a glass at a family celebration.
She claims to have suffered from stomach pains ever since the incident, which occurred on December 26th 2009, and as such is pursuing a claim for compensation, reports Decanter magazine.
At the time, Asda removed the wine from its shelves while it conducted an investigation. Ms Beesley’s lawyer, Michael Connor of TPS Solicitors, said that Asda was ‘under a duty by virtue of the Sale of Goods Act to make sure the wine was fit to drink’. He added that the fact the wine apparently contained a dead frog clearly made it unfit for consumption.
