 * Delete No more notable than any other small-scale sexual offender. And I'm less than convinced the Cambridge Evening News is a non-trivial source, anyway (The CEN is a small-scale local rag which generally specialises is "Wisbech man bitten by dog" type stories). -  irides centi   (talk to me!)  23:02, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
