And she's the <I>victim</I>! <BR/><BR/>Then there's the police spokesman's almost jokey reference to <I>"Clearly, the relationship between cats and pigeons got out of hand"</I>. Is it me, or that a bit 'Bird/cat lovers, eh (sigh of exasperation)?'<BR/><BR/>The tone of this report sits uneasily with the seriousness of the crime. And don't get me started on the paltry 8 year jail term!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-1155721000618810852006-08-16T09:36:00.000+00:002006-08-16T09:36:00.000+00:00...Those three locations aren't terribly close.Coa......Those three locations aren't terribly close.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Coatbridge is 8 miles from Motherwell.<BR/><BR/>Ayr, I grant you is about 40Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5187043.post-1155676849992163572006-08-15T21:20:00.000+00:002006-08-15T21:20:00.000+00:00Some years ago Viz had a strip - "Thieving Gypsy B...Some years ago Viz had a strip - "Thieving Gypsy Bastards" - only ran for one issue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
