It's all bonkers. She's bonkers, what she did was bonkers, having to have CCTV in your front window is bonkers, it's all bonkers.
I'm glad I'm not bonkers. wink
She was probably fined according to her means to some degree. There's no point in fining someone huge amounts of money if they have no means to it. And as she's virtually unemployable at the moment £250 is quite likely a huge sum of money to her.
I agree it doesn't compensate the owners for their worry and upset but the fine isn't for compensation. They could always persue a civil case I suppose.

We back on this one? Bloody cats, the only mistake she made was getting caught wink

Yup - back on this one cos it was on the news today :wink:

Seriously - you reckon a ruined career and a life of misery plus a fine is due payment for a cat spending a few hours in a bin? Jeez - that's severe.

No, I agree Foxy that is far too harsh. But that's what trial by media is. The punishment the court issued was more reasonable. IMO the fine was fair. The ban might seem a bit silly and pointless - but I think it's fair too. Just because she personally is unlikly to want to keep an animal doesn't mean that the ban shouldnt have been issued. It's probably according to punishment guidelines. It prevents her keeping one - even if she does decide to.
In edit - what i was trying to say (but worded badly) was that the judge will have followed sentencing guidelines and that the ban would probably have been part of that. Also the fine was probably relative too, no actual harm came to the cat otherwise Im sure the fine would have been more. So it's fair. The media frenzy thats fucked up her life isn't controlled by guidelines. She will be subjected to whatever the papers and the public deem just. That's not so fair.
Its still a ban though. It's more of a prevention of cruelty than a punishment.
Mary Bale has been fined £250 and banned from keeping animals for 5 years! That's not too over the top now is it!

I dont do the lottery, they are totally random and mean nothing, but if you win anything with em, buy me a drink wink
hehe
Ah, well in that case I not been in there long enough for that to happen to me. So far its been ok for me. Maybe Im just lucky then.
The club we go to has an invite policy of sorts. Everyone rings up beforehand to say they're coming and single guys get the green light to come depending on how many couples are there.
Its probably quite faffy for them to impliment but it works VERY well and ensures that the balance of couples to single men is spot on every time. And because everyone are members they know that's what they have to do.
A bigger club could easily do what Dean suggests and let in single men or small groups of single men only as the couples come in.
The pricing thing though, tit's such a damned either way situation for the club. They have to get the people through the door to make money. If they dont make money they dont survive. If they drop singles entrance they stand to lose the largest part of their income in some cases I would think. Any business would find that sort of hit difficult to do.
Has anyone been to a mixed night yet since the law changed?
I go back and forth between the two. By the time the old ones gone I think I'll be perfectly used to the new one. Most sites would just switch and leave ppl to flounder. At least this way you can ease in gently. And seen that most ppl are on the new chat I would say its proving to be ok. Or no-one would be using it... right?

Ok, but the point i was making then was about vermin in general and the need for culling.
Off topic somewhat, I think the biggest problem rats cause these days is not disease, (in this country at least) its property/food stock damage.

You are dead right, blow there bloody heads off I say! My only thought was that a shot gun was not the ideal wepon for urban areas.
The comment I made below was rather tongue in cheek
That is very different, rats are horrible disease ridden little creatures. Below is an old story which springs to mind. Keep in mind that this pub already served pork, beef, lamb, and chicken....etc

Actually, I didnt read the squirrel story earlier - I just saw squirrel and ... well anyway I've just read it! What kind of planet are we living on??? Firebombing a restaurant because they sell meat from a particular animal thats no different to any other edible animal but happens to be a bit cuter than a cow (and a damn sight more destructive, unless said cow is in your roof, then you're pretty fucked).
Im more than happy with SH. I would like to extend a big hearty thank you to all those who run it (for all the thanks they get) for operating an excellent site. The new chat rooms are great but even better is that the old ones are still there for those of us like me who fear change so we can get used to the change a bit more gradually.
Top marks SH! :thumbup:
You get out of it whatever you want to! I'll renew with gusto!
I think you hit the nail on the head at the beginning. If you're still new to clubs and as you said you're out of your comfort zone it could be just that! It might be hard to feel horny or get turned on when you're sill in your head saying 'Oooh fuck! This is a bit mad'. And until you feel relaxed and comfortable you just wont get there.
Maybe you feel a little under pressure to do something yourself or that just standing there isn't quite right.
I'd give it some more time, maybe watch from a little further away so you dont feel like you're being watched watching. Work on feeling comfortable without trying to feel horny too, once that happens the rest may well just drop into place on its own.
biggrin It took me a good few club visits to get over the freaking out in my head factor. wink
Dont get me started on squirrels! And rabbits! Damn bunnies! Though thanks to a friend with a gun the rabbit problem I have is reducing dramatically. And we're having some lovely stews and roasts lately too! wink

I wonder if they would feel the same about halting a cull of a nuisance wasps nest, or a rat explosion (not literally of course... rats going bang all over the place is probably quite rare).
Shooting IS the most effective and humane way to deal with foxes. What do these protesters propose the residents do now? Ask the foxes nicely to bugger off to the next street?
Grooming a bonkers horse, who until today has never let anyone touch him. He's not been handled or brushed in over a year.
And laughing cos my horse got jealous that I wasn't getting him out of the field! lol

Here`s a thought ....
A restorer of rare works of art happens to be in ya local pub and you get chatting to them ...
You mention that you have a family heirloom tucked away in your house and they ask to see it ....
You show it to them and they mention that it needs some restoration and that it`s so beautiful and rare they would do the work for free just for the pleasure of working on such a wonderful piece.
Would you turn them down because it`s what they get paid for ?

Well said Flower!
I'd probably cook em a nice meal to say thanks tho... that part doesn't translate very well haha! wink
Lost! Haha you do make me giggle out loud! Your talents are wasted you know! lol

Me too! I thought stew and dumps before i even opened the thread! I totally love bunging the lot in the slow cooker in the morning and leaving it for the day. The house smells devine when we come in and its all hot and ready! Yummmm
Liver tho - Ewwww No!
The Good, the bad and the ugly
