Shhhhh! I'm glued to the BBC news channel!

Bastards.

I'll tell you, but only because they've inexplicably gone to the weather.
Police have placed a two mile exclusion zone around...oh, hang on..Posted 2 years ago # -
...Rothbury...
Looks like he's heading North so get your doors locked JB.
I was reading a bit on the bbc website before where they say they've picked up the 2 men he had hostage and arrested them for conspiracy to murder. Anyone know why they arrested them as it doesn't seem to give that nugget of info.

Uhm, was it not on conspiracy to murder?
Doors locked, and least scary Lab in the world primed and ready to run and hide.

he'll never get this far. Keep him talking, Jen, there's a love.

Just don't dress as a policeman and shout "I've had your missus" at him and you'll be fine

Svendo I can just imagine a Government Press conference giving out that wise advice to the resident of Northumberland
Posted 2 years ago # -
I'll keep an eye out on the local news for the anchor giving that info out.
"remember, if you see this man, keep calm, don't act like a member of the police and definitely don't say "Oh it's you, I thought I recognised you from the photo by the side of your girlfriends bed"".

Anyone else looking at those farm buildings and thinking: ooh, double-height conversion, swimming pool...
Posted 2 years ago # -
No, that's a girly thing. I was thinking of the Supermarket scene in Hot Fuzz.

Oh, okies. Thought buildings like that brought out everyones' inner Kevin McCloud. *sigh* Kevin McCloud...can inspect my snug any time etc etc...
Back to the siege, I suppose...

Northumberland Police have asked locals to remain vigilant as Raoul Moat remains at large in the North East.
"We would advise anyone who sees Mr Moat that they should attempt to tackle him themselves. So far he has threatened police and we don't want to antagonise him further so we feel that a community, or lone vigilantee approach would work best in tackling this very dangerous man."etc...

...if only Doglass Hogg could still claim for it - he knows people who could clean up this sort of man.

He's still 'at large' - but I suspect that's the steroids.

Reading about it all on a chat board is almost as exciting as listening to grass grow on BBC Radio 4.

Do you think this trend of gun-crazed killers is a Northern Fad?
Is it something you Southern Jessies might think of adopting?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Doubt it. It's far more likely what was assumed to be a sawn-off shotgun and a brace of grenades, would actually be a couple of demi-baguettes and a clutch of pain au chocolat.

The Southerners are still bigging up the Hungerford spat, living on past glories and all that.

And if, after their 'spree', they trotted off to The Heath to live rough - well, a fool and his Cath Kidston tent is soon parted.

From my very brief foray into the Cath Kidston catalogue, they'd have to set up camp in a flower bed.

they need to fill that exclusion zone with water or they will never stop him

A moat for the Moat ed?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Right I am up with you now. Thanks for your help earlier. Much appreciated.

Stunts, yes.
Was actually thinking that it'd be ideal for holiday lets with a sideline in pony-trekking.
Wonder if it's on the market...Posted 2 years ago # -

Svendo, that's genius! Should be on the FP.
In fact, I've just posted your 'Just don't dress as a policeman and shout "I've had your missus"' line on the subs board, crediting your good self.
