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 was at work until about 7.30-8pm and then went to the pub called The Two Chairmen with a bloke called James.
I went from work to the pub with James so at least one person can vouch for me at all times.0 -

I was home took DS2 to his guitar lesson at 7pm and collected him at 7.30. OH would have arrived home at 7.30 ish and then we were all home for the evening. Boys were 17 & 13 so old enough to provide alibi as would OH.
Isn't it a given that OHs provide alibis when required? Isn't that why they are untrustworthy witnesses?
So the question is would you lie for your OH and would you expect them to lie for you?I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

The difference between then and now.

His programme is constructed to sell the stuff in the advertising slots....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

They aren't necessarily untrustworthy witnesses, it depends.
Spouses are competant but not compellable as witnesses, which means they can give evidence but can't be forced to.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.
I was in court in Feltham, and then had a Chambers meeting in the evening. So if the murder was in Manchester, I'm in the clear!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

Dh and are always bleeding on about that name. I sometimes cal Dh 'good' as a nickname. But good luck Jonathan is wonderful. I wouldn't mind being called good luck.0 -
I've no idea where I was that evening.... I can say "probably at X ...." and "almost 99.99% sure I'd have been alone" .... I did a post on MSE at 6pm, but I was probably chatting on another website that has no record/timestamps.
So ... on the basis it might be me that did it .... I now need to Google my way out of the country0
