I thought that Christmas time was supposed to be happy and jolly, so why are there three "nasty" deaths reported here today? Could not someone report death by drowning in a vast of whisky, preferably in a high quality brothel? |

Reminds me of a story I heard many years back (when I was at university). Police raided a brothel in Edinburgh. In spite of a good search and some ladies there, there was nothing they could find to charge them with. Whilst scraping the bottom of the barrel to find something, they got the council in who confimed there had been several walls built without building consent. The building owner was tackled by the council for unauthorised erections. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

The building owner was tackled by the council for unauthorised erections. Years'n'years ago when I was on a planning committee, a "parlour" applied for permission to do some works. After being repeatedly told they couldn't turn it down on moral objections, members of the board trawled through the regs, and eventually managed to grant with condition that disabled access be provided to all points of service. This was a parlour above a shop. The applicant gave up and moved elsewhere. To somewhere with ground floor access and a nice car park. jgh |
