    There will be convictions ,what the CPS will have to do given the lack of medical evidence is establish patterns of behaviour as in the case of Hall, the witness statements show remarkable similarities of behaviour .And while I agree that there is a lot of media prurience , they have had to hold back in Hall’s case until he has been convicted and awaiting sentence in a month.
    There will be a few bum-slappers caught up in the general flow [ like Dave Lee Travis and its important that they should be treated differently to serial speedo-files

    Assuming you have a modern stereo, why not get scart to phono leads and play it through your amp, just control it through the source button .

    The thing is most people in most activities are fine , its just the nobbers who stand out in the memories of those from other groups.I will have cycled alongside about a hundred cardrivers today ,but its the one who cut me up that I recall.
    Its why I always try to be be mega polite to other trail users ,to compensate for the negative impressions they may have of my sport

    I did the whole ” getting a quote online thang and then went to the local dealer [ bolton ] they seemed to be operating out of a small office and a mechanic came out and offered me a lower proce, he openly admitted that the online price is just to get you into a dialogue with them, I politely declined and went on to sell me car privately .Each month they send me a slightly lower offer in the hope that I am desperate by now. I’m not .

    I was shocked to hear of DJ’s passing as I am sure many were , I like the idea of the orgasnised ride in the Dales to mark his passing, perhaps a minute’s silence at the top of Fremington edge

    One of the problems is that given the shadow of the Jimmy Saville investigation there is almost an assumption that anyone accused of sexual offences is part of the same circle of lovey-nonces .Some like Dave Lee Travis are accused of relatively minor sexual intrusions against adult females at social gatherings. I’m not minimising but I think we need to know what each one is accused of and deal with on it’s merits before chop their billabongs off

    at the end of the day you can’t stop them seeing stuff , as junkyard said even an innocent search can bring unexpected results , as I found when I googled ” outdoor action ” whilst looking for a camping store in Bolton.
    I remember being quite shocked at some of the stuff my son looked at when he was 13/ 14 especially the ” feed em up fatty sites , which seem to advocate a very unhealthy diet in young ladies. Best thing you can do is keep em grounded and try to react in a level headed way.

    the castle is really good too on oldham street , just around the corner from swan street where bar fringe and smithfield are, or there’s the monkey or the circus tavern on parliament street , otr the chop house , don’t go to the peveril of the peaks though, it used to be good but now its shite. the lasso’gowery off oxford road also has its own brewery. Having said that id stay in the northern quarter , start at the castle and m,ake my way to the marble, or vice versa
