A fantasist who posed as an Army doctor and treated up to 40 recruits has been jailed.

Alexander, from Woolwich, south-east London, admitted pretending to be a registered medical practitioner, and battery in relation to Mr Cox's hand. Andrew Collings, defending, said Alexander was looking to further his career in finance. 'He's hoping to get back into risk management,' he added.

I can see the connection.

It's Menelaus.

Hope he gets some help.

Never met him, communicated by email but just goes to show!

Looks like we know why his place is empty...

Well, that's this weeks gossip all done and dusted then.

I'm getting sick of all the Walter Mitty characters on here.

Based on what I know of him, I'm afraid Churchill is correct.
