So, they have arrested a man they suspect of abducting this little girl, whilst there is a chance she is still alive…. am I a bad person for suggesting they inject him with a truth drug or something to get him to tell them where she is? or is that against his human rights?
(I did consider suggesting they beat it out of him but dare not suggest that here)

Maybe I’m happy to believe it because of the stories I heard about him while he was still alive and how those people didn’t say anything because they didn’t think anyone would believe them. They dreaded the abuse they’d get for accusing “Saint Jimmy” and thought they’d be persecuted by the media.
It’s not uncommon for stories of sex abuse only to come to light after the perpetrator dies as it’s often the first time that the victims have felt safe and able to talk about it.
OK… when Jimmy died I just said RIP here but actually in real life I knew Jimmy quite well, when I was a child we lived in the same area… he was much older than me but later after I was married our paths crossed again. For much of his life Jimmy lived in a flat overlooking Roundhay Park in Leeds. I used to have coffee with friends in the cafe over looking the lake, Jimmy would see me arrive and always came to chat and have coffee. I got to know him reasonably well as did my kids when they were on school hols he would make them laugh and tell them stories.
Yes he was a flirt and given the slightest encouragement he could be over enthusiastic…. but in Jimmies book no was no. He was a lovable rogue in some ways but never a bully and definitely would not force himself on people although he was appreciative of a pretty face and would make it known he was available.
He was a complicated character proud of his roots and his achievements especially his charitable work. I don’t think anyone truly knew Jimmy…. he was a lonely soul, he craved affection and shunned commitment… I can only tell you about the man i knew, but I knew him over many years, I don’t think he was perfect in fact for sure he wasn’t… but a bad person? No I don’t think so.
Spot jen jen….. she is the one eating the Flake… well hidden :D

£247 is about the norm if you choose a half decent frame, wear variofocals and have the anti-scratch coating…the last time I went to Specsavers and they offered me the 2 for 1 deal I said I didn’t need 2 pairs, could they just do the one pair at half price please? This seemed to confuse them for some reason…
…and my specs are blue and green like your siggy…I got them from the optician, I didn’t steal them, honest! :shock:
£247 ??? :shock:
I’m glad I don’t need specs anymore.
Did you have laser treatment Panda? I did about 15years ago… trouble is as you get older eyes deteriorate naturally and I am now back to needing glasses, I could have
PBLE corrective eye treatment which involves replacing the lenses in your eyes which Im considering…. thing is its expensive also I’m a bit squeamish and the thought of an actual eye operation puts me off….. but I hate glasses or contacts so might have it done…. thinking :DSpiced paneer…. perfect
