Attack on cyclist in Surrey - Arrests

[porteous]

Not sure if this is the right place for this; but police have arrrested a number of people on suspicion of attempted murder. Details here: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20090820/tuk-five-arrested-over-savage-cyclist-at-45dbed5.html

Shurely shome mishtake? "Attempted" murder!

Who is that in your avatar? A relative?

 

[porteous]

Quite right, "attempted" murder. Correction made!

Look up Pte John ( Barney ) Hines, AIF 1914-1918

Souvenir King, price on his head, Kaiser etc etc...Very interesting.

The sort of bloke you want on your side.

But you didn't answer the question porteous. Any connection?

I'm a battlefield guide and he's my favourite Liverpudlian Australian

 

[Globalti]

Which battlefield? Sefton?

 

[porteous]

I suppose that's what I get for taking the question seriously

 

[rikki]

Thanks for the serious answer porteous.

It's not proper Surrey though is it? It's effectively London, the UK city with the highest crime rate.

Proper Surrey is lovely and a great place to cycle.

As is "proper" London, not these chavvy Surrey 'Burbs!

Chump!

West Ewell is like tens of thousands of suburbs up and down the country. It could as easily be in Manchester, or Aylesbury, or Bognor Regis.

Is Nonsuch Park in Ewell?

I suppose those places have their bad parts just like Surrey. It's just that all of Surrey's bad parts are effectively in London.

Surrey proper is a low crime area and wonderful for cycling.
