    Shir Shaun's cousin dies

    I know there are lots of Sean Connery fans here so they may be interested in this article in today's evening paper - http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/to...too.3771547.jp

    Wonder if he'll be going to the funeral?

    Wow, I like the due process over there

    "The car was later taken away and crushed by police because it had no road tax and was uninsured."

    That's Great!!!!

    That kid will be listening to old Lawrence Welk tunes if he ever gets another car

    I have to say my eyes came to a screeching halt on the word "crushed". I must say it sounds like the guy deserved it.

    there have been several instances of people suffering heart attacks when dealing with Neds

    shockingly, a few years ago an elderly couple commited joint suicide aftre being tormented by youths every night.

    if anyones ever witness the level of Police "response" in the UK its no suprise that people are frustrated.

    I think what gets me going the most about this is that he saw this guy collapse and then turned the music up even more.

    Remember back when most people had a modicum of respect for their elders and, even as teenagers, were mostly well behaved.

    Oh to be back in my Dad's day when he got arrested for jaywalking because that was one of the bigger crimes where he was living.

    And then we have the US, where the cops have a God complex and are overly aggressive. Where's the happy medium?
