17, so immoral .... because he's just a leering, dirty old bugg4h. Had nothing to do with soulmates and shared interests .... he was just dribbling over thoughts of nubile flesh.
EDIT:
I hadn't read it before, of no interest to me... so I took a look. It seems she applied for a job in his constituency office and he started bombarding her with dirty texts. THAT is just wrong, wrong, wrong. Dirty, dirty, old pervert.
Wrong.
Is from my favorite news website, but don't hold that against it too much:

He should have worked out it would be made public, he must be on plenty of lists to be 'stung', but it looks to me like she wasn't exactly talking politics with him. He's clearly an idiot, and there is a notable age gap. But she is over the age of consent...
I braved torrential rain and the M1 to come to a friend's house for the evening. We have snacks aplenty and numerous bottles of fizz. Currently watching/ talking over ET (ITV2)0 -

Random film just started on BBC1 so I'll give that a go.
I hope it's good/watchable ... looks a bit odd/dull so far.
*looks it up*
Roald Dahl's Esio Trot.
Ah ...looks like drivel.
I'm here, and feeling a bit miserable - nothing to do with the turn of the year.
PN how is your web empire at the moment?I think....0 -
I'm trying to decide whether to go out or not...
Yes - Catch up with friends, get very drunk, probably get in all sorts of trouble, have a rotten hangover tomorrow
No - Feel old and boring that I'm not going out on NYE, probably get drunk anyway with Mrs McT, have a moderate hangover tomorrow

So I want to find out who lived in the house then.
Next week, find out the phone number of the county archives where this happened. Phone them up and ask them if they have a set of Kellys directories covering the area for that year, and if not, if they know where one is.
If they have a copy, it is a 30 second - 1 minute job to look up and report back who was living there, it's the sort of thing an archive should do free of charge. If they don't have one for that year, it's worth looking a couple of years either side (if they have those), as people moved less often then.
BTW, happy new year all, esp the Aussie contingent who've already been there, done that. Have had a busy work week, so will probably be in bed with a mug of cocoa come 11pm.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Hmmmm...
For me, the deciding factor would be weather. If it is awful out, I'd stay home, if it isn't, I might be persuaded to venture out.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

Next week I'm going to have a drink of water.
Just to surprise my liver...;)“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

Well I've decided to leave it in the lap of the gods.
Attempting to summon a taxi now, if I can get one then out it is, if not then there's a rather nice bottle or two of something that will get emptied.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
