Sentenced to attend a course on domestic relationships. I hope his wife is able to give him some firm guidance.

If she's cooking for him there could be a long term plan for revenge here ….

Defence solicitor advocate Susannah Proctor said if Nutbrown went to prison he would lose the council house he had lived in all his life.
There was no-one to look after his 300-plus racing pigeons and the fish in ponds at his house so they would suffer.

Sounds like a welfare dependent layabout who is going to hold on to his "Entitlements". One wonders if he has any Roma blood and whats the betting that Ms Procter is getting paid by Legal Aid?

"One" may if it amuses you, it seems irrelevant to the matter.

Perhaps.
Delete "Legal Aid".
Insert "Free Legal Aid".

A man with his priorities sorted - Car, house, car, food, pigeons, car, fish, food, car, - Did anyone mention Wife? No? Female partner then? No? -- Ah well can't expect everything.

Just proves that one should not jump to conclusions!
I assumed (until I read further) that a 'mobility vehicle' was some form of motorised wheelchair.
I now realise that it is simply a motor vehicle. How silly of me .........
Pity about the pigeons and goldfish etc. It's a wonder that he didn't have seven wives and 42 pregnant children as well. Oh well that's what happens with a Legal Aid lawyer.
If he had had a QC ??????????

For the uninitiated 'mobility vehicle' would mean that the car is leased under a subsidised scheme meaning that he gets to pay less for it as a side benefit of receiving state benefits.
It is just a car but because someone, who may or may not be the driver, has some form of mobility problems which requires them to be transported everywhere in a car.

As it turns out the woman got even more immobile as a result.
And now that the man has lost his driving licence he cannot transport her anyway - On the basis that she needed to be transported one can wonder just how she gets to the shops now.
If she has a licence and can get a mobility vehicle in her own right - That would be justice.

Call me 'uninitiated'.
That must be a new racket for most of us here in Oz.
The politicians, of course, are already into it ..............

Three Italian nuns die and go to heaven.

At the Pearly Gates, they are met by St. Peter. He says, "Sisters, you all led such exemplary lives that the Lord is granting you six months to go back to earth and be anyone you wish to be.”



The first nun says, "I want to be Sophia Loren."



And ‘poof’ she's gone.



The second says, "I want to be Madonna and ‘poof’ she's gone.



The third says, "I want to be Alberta Pipalini."



St. Peter looks perplexed. "Who ?", he asks.



"Alberta Pipalini," replies the nun.



St. Peter shakes his head and says, "I'm sorry, but that name just doesn't ring a bell."



The nun then takes a newspaper out of her habit and hands it to St. Peter.



St. Peter reads the paper and starts laughing. He hands it back to her and says,



"No sister, the paper says it was the 'Alberta Pipeline' that was laid by 1,400 men in 6 months."



If you laugh, you're going straight to hell !
