I really shouldn't read that stuff.... but it sounds like one or two respondents would happily oblige you, whereas the others would prefer an Oscar Wilde in Reading Gaol situation.

I've never been in a position to work with the falsely accused, unless you consider the numerous people I've met who say they're innocent! When working with family/prisoner rehabilitation the crime they've committed was never of primary importance to me. When you work with prisoners, you work with the belief that they have received their punishment and are serving their time accordingly. Your job is not to judge or punish anymore; that's been done and is thankfully not how our system works.

How do the family cope? I've no idea tbh, it takes a lot of strength, courage and support. That's a horrible story from FH and I fully agree that anonymity should be granted for the accused as well as the accusers.
Someone I went to school was falsely accused of murder, acquitted, then a few years later tried again and found guilty.... He was always an odd 'un....

So was he falsely accused first time and wrongly convicted second or rightly accused first time but got off with it?

Never saw the evidence, however it would suggest that your latter theory is correct. Suspect he must be getting out fairly shortly.

Indeed, think it was a bit of a historic case being the first under double jeopardy....

Some of the crap that my misses comes back with, she'll buy fucking anything.

The latest addition is some cheap, tacky golden ship-clock. It's awful. None of us have any particular interest in ships so it's also quite random, we don't need one either as we have plenty of cheapy, tacky clocks already. It's an unnecessary, random cheap tacky piece of shite.

"It was cheap", she tells me. Of course it's fucking cheap... it's shit. I actually wish she'd spend a bit more.

She can't help herself. We had seven chopping boards at one point. Seven. We only need one, maybe two at a push. But seven?

We have 7. We have 4 Joseph Joseph ones. 1 small one. Another red one for meat. And a wooden one for cutting bread on.

What is it with people who park up on a motorway flyover just to watch the cars fly by. The bridge over the M4 from Wroughton to Waitrose is prime anorak country for this.

Binoculars and all!
