Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: blinkpip on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 17:49:20 How many times have I heard this.
Three people in the last week warned me not to go into Swindon this weekend. Apparently there is going to be a bombing or some kind? A asian told one of my friends yesterday that it's true? I suppose someone going to have a peaceful shopping weekend. :roll: I don't believe it, but I wondered if anyone else heard anything? Title: Swindon bombing rumour?

I was told not to go to cribbs causeway shopping because it will be bombed! people are making up stories to scare people. My mate said that her friends, friend was at the cashpoint and a asian bloke left without his money so she ran after him and gave him his money, he said thankyou and told her not to go to so and so on this date. I have heard that story from loads of people and its a load of bollocks. Ignore it :D

I've heard this.....it goes something like this....woman finds sack of cash, which happens to belong to a gentleman of obvious Islamic origin, she returns it, and although offered refuses the substantial compensation for her honesty....so is given a word of advice not to go into Town on....etc etc. Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Tails on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 17:56:26 I've heard this for Luton, Cheltenham, Swansea, Swindon, Oxford and a few others. It's blatantly not true.

Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: stfc11 on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 18:31:51 yeah i've heard this from a few people, the one i've heard is a man drops his wallet, someone picks it up and give's it back, and then the man says 'oh you're so kind don't come into town on these dates as we might blow town up'
i don't believe it for one minute! Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: my-velocity on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 19:16:28 Aparently it's happening in town, maybe then they'll build a new one if it does happen. Towns a sh1t hole.
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Mister Lorenzo on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 19:24:08 I've heard a similar story about a asian looking guy dropping a wallet and a passer by picking it up and giving it back to him.
The recipient is extremely pleased and in return warns the guy to stay out of the town centre. Thinking it's because of an imminent terrorist attack the guy is still curious and asks him why. 'Because it's a shithole' comes the reply. I'll get me coat.....I'm here all week. Title: Swindon bombing rumour?

Post by: Elsterap on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 20:52:31 Im going Christmas shopping on saturday in the hope there'll be shorter queues.
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Spud on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 21:06:01 Ive heard there might be a riot, which will be fun when im out in Town off me tits. :wink:
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: faringdingdong on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 21:26:28 This is exactly the effect terrorism in its various forms is intended to have. If you let this sort of shit change the way you live your lives then evil has won. Don't believe the hype.
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Sussex on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 21:30:31 Similar cashpoint/wallet dropping rumours were going around 4/5 years ago. It's all crap.
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Johno on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 21:48:59 to be honest theres nothing to bomb in most of england...
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Spud on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 06:18:25 I wish they drew some money out in front of me and fucked off without getting it, i certainly wouldnt run after them. :D
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: littleXdave on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 07:02:05 Yeah you hear all these stories, what about the ones who have kept the money?
:wink: Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: janaage on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 08:59:14 The thing that gets me is that the person that tells you always says it's a friend of a friend who was warned. MY girlfriend was told this two weeks ago (apparentely it was a work mate's friend who was at the cash point), then one of my workmates was told (it was her friend's niece).
And it's always women who spread the story. Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Sippo on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 09:09:47 And a lot of people spread it electronically so therefore it clogs up IT systems, so another victory for the spammers.

Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Northern Red on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 09:20:18 Well I'm moving to Bradford to be safe - I mean they wouldn't bomb their own country would they?

I'd be more worried why my friend of a friend didn't kick the fuck out of the evil little git and drag his bloodied corpse round to the local cop shop for them to "question" him (possibly hooked up to a high voltage power supply on a US plane somwhere over Eastern Europe). Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: flammableBen on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 12:18:25 Noones been warning me not to go into town. Maybe I'm the intended target.
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: janaage on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 12:23:18 Must be great being a muslim right now. You hail a cab on a Saturday night, knowing you have no way of paying. Then as you go to tell the cab driver you say "look mate, I haven't got any money, but I'll give you a warning instead, don't go to town...blah blah blah" Taxi driver buys it let's you off paying.
Like genf_stfc says why has no one ever tried to apprehend the fucker who told the person. Fucking load of shit. Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: Piemonte on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 12:35:03 Why the fuck would anyone bomb Swindon? I can think of 40 million higher profile tagets in the UK than our wonderful town
Title: Swindon bombing rumour? Post by: fatbury on Wednesday, December 7, 2005, 12:41:56 Why bother bombing a town that looks like its already been bombed?
