I'm always like, "Well, of course, I'm not," but if Amy got "You gonna end up like Billie Holiday?", I'm sure she said, "No." I don't think anyone asks for it. But you never know.' Unlike Winehouse, Adele doesn't feel the pressure to be tuning-fork thin. 'I'm just not bothered,' she announces, in the Catherine Tate tradition. 'It doesn't bother me. I'm not naive, I don't believe I need to look like that. I'm very confident. Even when I read people saying horrible stuff about my weight.

McCambridge said the tax base on new development likely easily covered the cost of that small increase. It is when Central Bucks saw growth of 900 students a year — forcing it to build schools — that the expense of new homes showed, said McCambridge and Dave Matyas, the district's business administrator. “If we had 100 kids and the kids were distributed equally throughout the school district, it wouldn't be a problem," Matyas said. “When kids come in groups, they become quite a bit more expensive." Tax increases in Central Bucks during years of explosive growth and school building demonstrate how costs can add up: Property taxes increased 67 percent from 1995 to 2004, amid huge enrollment jumps. An official with the Heritage Conservancy, a Doylestown-based land preservation group, said single-family homes in Plumstead, Buckingham and Doylestown likely do not represent the average house being built in the communities Central Bucks serves.
