Legal question
I would have thought that if someone is charged with assault and there is no doubt that an actual blow was struck then it was down to the defence to prove it was self defence, but the Smellie (pffft) judge said it was down to the prosecution to prove that it wasn't. What's it all about Rachel?

I suppose it has to be the Jeeves & Wooster stories
but there are many more quality tomes from the fellow well worth investigating, such as Young Men in Spats.

Young men in Spats isn't available on Project Gutenberg
but I'll give Right Ho Jeeves and teh Clicking of Cuthbert a go.

You'll love them

I don't know
I like both Iron Maiden and Saxon.

Deaf, maybe, but not a helmet
I'll lend you that Saxon film if and when it arrives. The trailer I got with Classic Rock mag is fucking hysterical.

I have one of those mouths that just eminates filth.
You should meet me in person, I'm like a mental erection, constantly thrusting into your train of thought.
