    But you can make them up elsewhere...

    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

      Good heavens, I hadn't noticed. Thanks.

      No, I've still got the dodgy lady and I've still got them turned off. I must get around to it soon... (mutter, mutter)

        Indeed. I've been killing hunters in the Canadian forests as a lay deity until now.

          I think the scoring for age starts to go down from the age of 35. Under 35 = 15pts, then its all down hill...

          You can make it up, especially if you deposit 100K dollars for 12 months (~45K sterling), that gains you 5/10 points I think.

            I haven't tried. I looked into it 20-odd years ago when I was still a young and thrusting professional, but I moved to Edlesborough instead.

                Its got the lot in one long rant: immigrants, house prices, the collapse of law and order, yob nation, the evil of political correctness suppressing free thought.

                Buy a copy now before its banned by lefties!
                Does it mention IR35?

                    Indeed. My Edlesborough passport photo doesn't do me justice.
