Christine - I Have Found Where Your Hearthrob-Hubby Absconded To!

Just finished my chores for the day and took a peek at the papers online, when something caught my eye! I was reading about the riots, and read this:

"Vigilantes were forced onto the streets last night to protect their homes and businesses after police failed to materialise at many of the scenes of looting and violence which swept across London.

As officers lost control of the streets locals were forced to take the law into their own hands, arming themselves with sticks and chasing looters away from their properties.

In Dalston and Hackney, north-east London, Turkish shopkeepers and their families fought back against looting youths, before spending the night standing shoulder-to-shoulder in an attempt to deter further attacks.

One man said: 'This is Turkish Kurdish area. They come to our shops and we fight them with sticks.'"


Of course, as soon as I saw those words "we fight them with sticks" I thought to myself 'I bet that's Christine's hubby! The one who has to carry a stick with him to fight all the women off!'

I'm not sure if Christine will be reading this in the Old Folk's Home, but could someone alert her to the article please?

Thanks!

LOL! My husband was showing me some video links about this story on the Hurriyet website earlier. I had to laugh. I said to him that this is what Turds will do if you threaten their money - had their wives, children or mothers been under threat they might not have gone to such lengths - but their money? That's another proposition entirely!

That is so funny.......!! Its like a ray of sunshine on here sometimes......love it love it love it!
