    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.”

        Since I have to wear one most of the time it completely screws up the following:-

        - Depth of field. You have little clue of how far away things are without reference points
        - Peripheral vision. Serious impairment.
        - Balance. As a result of both, one relies almost solely on aural sensations for balance rather than both aural and visual
        - Perspective. With no stereoscopic vision perspective is seriously compromised

        Most importantly however it has completely screwed up my golf handicap.

        To be fair in my case some of these problems are caused to a certain extent by the underlying visual problems.

        Try it for an extended period of time, you'll figure out then whether you can adapt to the affects.

          I am not qualified to give the above advice!

          Smith and Wesson.

          Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

            Nope. Thats a combination of complete incompetence, a screen too far away to read properly and the cheapest RF keyboard in the known universe. Mainly the former.

              Although in that sort of situation you are using it as an improvised weapon rather than downing tools and legging it

                The members of this forum have a worryingly detailed knowledge of weaponry.

                    Did I ever mention that I can strip and rebuild an SA80 (or a 5.56 rifle as they like to call it now) in 2 mins and 47 seconds

                      Do you come from Manchester or is there a professional reason for such skills?
