I know he wasn't wearing a big coat Leslie

When it was first reported by the Police, before the CCTV was released, they said he was suspicious because he was wearing a big coat on a warm day (and had a tan!).

It was only a couple of days later this was proven to be a cover up.

PS Spot on there UB (except the NL bit)- that's twice I have agreed with you in a week - although did you notice the thread where I agreed with you had no interest from anyone, let's get back to fighting

I'm currently listening to the audio book - Myths, Lies, and Downright Stupidity: Get Out the Shovel--Why Everything You Know is Wrong by John Stossel.

You quickly realise that all this liberalism stuff is, of course, an American import. The 'human rights' style lawyers over there are even worse than here (they call them equal rights lawyers). Some of the examples of litigation he cites will make your hair stand on end!

When you've learned to read words, rather than listening to them, you'll find that conclusion was pretty obvious about 5-10 years ago.

Very droll I'm sure... The advantage of audio books is that you can be taking them in whilst doing other things - like driving or walking or riding a bike for example. I'm sure really 'clever' people like you can do all three at once - and read a book at the same time.

Fine Rannoch, what you say is absolutely right. I misunderstood your earlier post.

Good letter to The Times today.

Suggested the money received by the criminals should be held whilst victims of their crimes take out civil suits for damages in respect of the robberies/assaults they suffered.

Indeed, rather than constantly trying to plug up a damn full of leaks, it's time to build a new one!
