Leveson II The Police

[eighthobstruction]

I think we could easily be charged with 'conspiracy to woo-hoooooo'....

....put simply the case for the prosecution is, "Go on get in there, wade around in it"....[no pun intended]....<but pleased to point out non-use of pun>

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

what is the legal distinction between conspiring to as opposed to actually woo-hoooing?

... and is a slime mould a conspiracy?

[eighthobstruction]

>>>'and is a slime mould a conspiracy?'>>>

....it's just one of natures algarithms just charging on....I personally think it would make for a very interesting world if it covered everything....

m'lud is letting it be known he carries a big stick .... info has been leaked from the 'ring of confidence' [no not toothpaste] and the members of this body are being slow and evasive in denying responsibility for the leaks ... m'lud is on their case .... not seen him look quite so cross ... with very measured words ...

I wonder if I am still being tracked. Common practice in the 1980s, even after the SS started turning its attentions to the animal liberationists and far right, as the telly programme Spies admitted a few years ago. Probably was blacklisted right up to retirement age 1 year ago.

If they are, they can freely read our posts, especially mine, and probably do. In my case they needn't bother - too tired these days even to go out to many a gig, let alone organise a revolution - they can save a lot of taxpayer's money.

These things have levelled. I doubt there is anyone in the country who isn't being tracked. If there is not a specific reason, you are probably "potentially suspicious" for being a citizen of the UK.

If there was a high standard that we were all failing to meet, we could feel horrified for ourselves. As it is, there isn't.

Instead, there are no doubt a lot of gamesy types who are being paid for viewing life as virtual reality while swigging on bottles of lager. In that light, there is even a certain logic to those who take their moral authority from religion.

Tickled at being thought pickled.

I once met Pickles. At my father's house on his 90th birthday. "Quick, quick", one of the middle-aged local Tory cheerleaders in attendance urged me, "Our MP is coming! Haven't you got a decent chair for him to sit on?" Dad introduced me as, "My son - a neo-communist". "I bet you do well on that" Pickles said to me.

Oh, the days when the word "neo" was associated with something reasonably benign.

Hasn't Eric claimed to have flirted with Communism in the late 1960s? I think so.

I have also been in the same place as him. Betty's Tea Room, York. He was a couple of tables away. I was in jeans and t-shirt attempting to negotiate welsh rarebit, a pot of tea and a bottle of Theakston's. He was in dinner jacket and bow tie, eating his way through a trolley load of cake.

... including the trolley.

Betty's Tea Rooms? You got a second mortgage, Lats?

Student grant ferney. Early 1980s. A special treat. I even ran a basic car, something I couldn't afford for 17 of the 25 years I was employed. Mind you, I left with terrible debts. £300. That was because the suspension fell out and it had to be repaired.

Brilliant image!

Pickles'?

[amateur51]

Pickles'?

I'd always imagined that Pickles' suspension would either be hydrolastic (was that the Austin Allegro or the other one?) or like they had on the Citroen GS

[Lateralthinking1]

Pickles'?

Well, I don't wish to be weightist but the previous owner was a huge woman, the car was very small and I was warned by people before I bought it. At the time, I just laughed.

It was fine until coming back from Old Trafford I drove it up onto a high kerb on the run-up to a motorway service station. It came back down with a terrible crash. Somehow I managed to get it back with very disturbed passengers driving at 15mph on the M62.
