We really don't need all the other nonsense, do we? Same as we don't need to know what people wear or the number of their car. All completely irrelevant. Where else in the world do we read this pointless detail? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a nephew who my wife banned from our house as he would often show up, speak to no-one, take a few snacks and eventually leave. One night, while I was away, he used a spare set of keys kept with his parents to enter the house and steal money and two phones, one from right beside where my wife was sleeping. It didn't take Sherlock Holmes to know who was responsible, but instead of involving the police (and my wife's brother is one) he was sent to spend a year in the army. Justice, Thai-style. He basically got a year-long sentence without involving any other party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
