Blimey - that'd have to be a very very serious arrest/case to have the hours trying to do that.

If I had more time now I'd see .... in the meantime, I have to go out, but here is ....

NP Challenge

By midnight tonight ..... I want you to come up with a good story and alibi (evidence if possible) of where you were between 7pm and 9pm on Wednesday 9th January 2008.



Let's see how many secret murderers we're harbouring here..... those without an alibi!

I can't- but I told you I was dateblind.:(

On the good side, I once found and read a police interrogation manual so, if I'm innocent, which I like to think I am, I know how to convince them of it.:A
Wouldn't work for a crime from years ago! Nor, if you actually aren't innocent! :eek:

Oooh do tell. What should we all do to convince them we're innocent?

On Wednesday 9th Jan 2008, I went to one of my jobs in the morning, and the other in the afternoon, but my Outlook calendar has nothing recorded for the evening. That means I wasn't doing anything that required me to book a babysitter, and my kids weren't with their dad, so therefore I was at home with them. While it's possible a friend came round in the evening at short notice, it's 99% probable that I was alone with my kids all evening. Back in 2008 they were 7 and 3, so no chance of them giving me an alibi after all this time. Are you going to arrest me?

PS I only joined MSE in May 2008, so no, I wasn't posting on here in Jan 2008.

At 23.49 on 9/1/08 I sent an email to someone. Apart from that, I can't prove whether or not I was murdering someone.

Oh, and at 19.08 , I posted a message to an online newsgroup about backup software. That still leaves quite a big window of opportunity, though.

Ay, DD was Oop North and it was a lot cheaper. DS preferred the other end of the country.

You take your pick, make your choice..... and pay for it (or we do )

A dozen years ago DS was at Nottingham - £40 a week was the target rent there.

Personally I would no comment every question in a police interview whatever the reason for the interview and demand to see all relevant evidence before giving any response, which I would provide in writing at a much later stage.

Once had a chap take this to real extremes by no commenting the question "what is your name", even his lawyer couldnt get him to say it on tape.

My student room was £12 a week in 1985.

House share 5 miles North of Leicester in 1968 = £2.50 a week [Food and utilities £4 a week].

Is he that loathsome patronising !!!! on Channel 4?

I'd say so. God there are so many celebrities who need to be made to do proper jobs instead of being given huge amounts of cash for doing nothing useful.

All of the income generated by footballers wives from endorsing perfume and from 21 year olds having autobiographies ghost written should be nationalised. Plus all of the novels "written" by Jordan should be seized and burned to generate electricity. Come to thInk of it, all celebrities who aren't famous for actually doing something useful should just be taxed at the rate of 98% unless they're from that programme about Chelsea in which case they should be sent to live in barrow.

thoroughly nice bloke, very easy to get along with, interesting to talk to, .

it's very rare to find someone who actively dislikes DH. He's very easy to get a long with, has no axe to grind about anything at all and finds most things interesting, so likes talking to people about what it is that interests them. I used to think it was a bit weird to be liked by everybody, my mother said "don't trust a man with no enemies" but she's crazy about him too. I have noticed over this sadisTic boss issue that the people who are being unpleasant are those who even if successful live life as if they have something to prove. Dh is the opposite of that, to a fault, becuase people expect and want you to care what they think a lot.

Oi! Don't knock not being useful. For a start if celebrities joined the other workforce, especially all the b to z listers, then there would be a lot more unemployment, than we'd also have to look at which jobs in the normal job market were also doing nothing useful. It would be carnage.

I wouldn't mind a live in gok wan, to kick me, push me and to go shopping for me.But most usefully to shout the very banal "you go girl" type exclamations everytime I did something. Over time that must be a confidence boost.
