"A 14-year-old girl later contacted Thames Valley Police to inform them a man had been abusive to her friend. "
When I was a kid, if a grown up had 'been abusive' then I would have forgot about it pretty soon after. I certainly would not have called up the police to get the guy into trouble. But then I suppose the police have to chase those home office stats some way. I mean it is obviously better to get a couple of plod to go and hassle somebody off the telly than actually investigate a burglary or something. After all it's why we pay them so much! What was it a 2.5% rise or a 1.9% one. Awww bless!Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment
