  1. Reading the thread it sounds like you're honing in on the point. Carrying a roll of coins could be an offence with intent to use them as a weapon (as suggested), proving intent is a matter of evidence. The moment it gets used in a fight, then there's both intent and also a very good chance of proving it. In fact it would be a very bad idea to use coins, because it would raise the type of charge and penalty, and reduce the odds of success of claiming any kind of self-defence - it's more likely to be argued that the person was out 'looking for trouble'. But someone walking down the street with coins in their pocket being wrongly accused? It would be very hard to prove intent. That may not stop the police intervening, but the odds of it being prosecuted would be minimal, and of actually succeeding even less. There are circumstances where you can imagine intent being proven though. If a group of thirty men going to a football match all had a roll of coins in their pocket, I think that would be an unlikely coincidence, say.
  2. Congratulations!!!! Fantastic news.
  3. Out of interest, what is it that makes you warm and fuzzy about this postcard? (More specifically I mean, it intrigues me).
  4. I think Pugwash is on the money with this. I thought the iPhone looked like a rubbish 'phone', but all the apps hadn't been written yet. Now it does things that didn't exist before it. I reckon this is aiming at doing to books and magazines what iTunes did to music, plus ramp up video sales while they're at it. If you think this is 'meh', Kindle's going to look seriously piss poor. Definitely there are some weird things that they'll inevitably sort out. I really don't get the flash thing, I thought it was related to processing power on the iPhone / iPod. Anyway, Stephen Fry says it's good, and there's about 0.00001% chance of him being wrong. It'll be interesting to see how it pans out. And once they jailbreak it - it'll be even better.
  5. Leave those jokers. Month by month is the way to go. http://bc.whirlpool.net.au/
  6. How heartbreaking. All the best for little Ella.
  7. Welcome! And yes, Shundi is that hot
  8. Wow - that's huge. How disappointing if you'd just bought your dream car. On the plus side, I bet the local body repair shop can't believe their luck!
  9. Classic shot! Hope you get well soon.
  10. It's a beaut! Great shots too. Enjoy!
  11. Welcome Crab

  13. (For KB especially) Man jailed for chicken lickin' ! http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/jan/20/asda-store-chicken-claim Any more "smiley crimes" out there?
  14. Congratulations!
  15. Welcome guys!
  16. Very nice indeed! Great shots!
  17. Reading between the lines, I think what Ubi is saying is that the trade would have to be pretty kinky.
  18. I've moderated one of these posts, which was particularly unkind. Not sure about medical prognosis by Chinese whisper, but if they can rebuild Lee Majors, I'm sure TTK'll be fine. I don't think it's fair to accuse him of scamming or stealing. He had many, many other well-publicised issues as a dealer, but I think he was on the level on that front.
  19. Opportunity Knocks
  20. This is from The Guardian... Don't recognize the face? How about the watch???! We all know it's Citizen owners that need prostitutes. The real scandal is that this is a just stock photo. How embarrassing for the dude - only people that know him and his watch will know who he is I guess. On a totally unrelated subject my pumpkin PO on black rubber is up for a very quick sale. Only interested in trades from prostitutes.
  21. It's normally safest to wrap your arm in aluminium foil before putting the watch on I find. Can't be too careful. Although in hindsight using that tainted Chinese aluminium foil on special was probably a mistake.
  22. usctrojan11 has been given a little time-out to sleep it off. Hopefully any future contribution to this thread will be to apologize.
