Fat Bob and oor Cathy

Mungo McKay in Scotland on Sunday explains one aspect of the McKie case:
"Cathy Jamieson is getting very upset about the McKie case. She's been told by Robert Gordon, her chief civil servant, that if she so much as utters a word about the case in public, he'll sit on her. Of course, Cathy is so terrified of him that she's now not saying a word on anything. "He telt me he'd come roond tae ma hoose at night. Why dae a huv tae huv such an awful boss?" she moaned."

The joke is enhanced by the fact that being sat on by the somewhat portly (to put it mildly) Mr Gordon would be a fate worse than almost anything you could think of.
