Meant to ask about this, actually. Where did you get such accurate scales? All bathroom scales I've ever encountered have had a wobble-range of a couple of pounds!

Electronic scales are pretty good these days and you can also get hold of medical-grade scales which are mechnical, but use a better mechanism than the "stretch a spring" method cheaper scales use - as a result of this cheaper scales will tend to become less accurate over time as the metal in the spring becomes fatigued.

Boots (http://www.boots.com/) sell a number of decent quality scales (http://www.boots.com/shop/product_list_new_template.jsp?classificationid=1034579), but expect to pay in the range of £30 upwards for a decent electronic one.
