@ Mario:
I'm certainly in no position to quantify how much of the story is based on facts or not; it might've happened as per reported but with The Sun being the most renowned (and best-selling) tabloid newspaper, it's very hard to gauge the level of authenticity.
It may well be worth still referring to the article to those two PC's and see what their reaction is...
Without meaning to generate any "conflict discussion" on the topic, I remember brix and I discussing Snoop Doggy Dogg's run-in with the cops here, where I mentioned my view that, with the exception of zero tolerance to terrorist threats, the cops are too leniant here (IMHO):

I really do feel for the cops here, having to (within reason) 'follow protocol' by the way they approach such abuse etc. But wouldn't it be fair to say that cops state-side (they don't get much bigger than New York, for example) manage to uphold the law more effectively with a greater level of zero tolerance? And as we know, the good ol' US of A ain't exactly one of those "poorer countries", is it?
But hey, that's just my opinion and as someone who isn't exactly qualified or experienced in law enforcement; just trying to think more laterally.
BTW, have a nice weekend there too.

You luck sod, LOL. That's a stunning handset! Love the angular lines and details on it.
Just wish they put a flash with that 3.2mp cam... and a card slot. (although 4Gigs is more than enough for the majority of people.

Hey Mario-Feel free to get things hot in here bru.As far as I can tell, its running pretty cold, and a bit of firetalk wont do any of us any harm.It might wake us up from our winter slumber here in SA.
Hey GUCCi-Havent you made up your mind yet buddy?
The Boks never looked good today.Was a pretty crappy,scrappy game.Very disappointed in their performance.

The Wallabies were definitely the better team today. We sucked...
So i popped into Bidorbuy yesterday while i was parked outside the Spar, scouting about for an emergency charger for my nephew when i stumbled across an N73 pegged at just under R1k, with about 30min to go to close of auction. By the time Mrs.K had returned from Spar i had bid on the phone, and by the time i got home, and about R1100 later i was the owner of the N73. It ought to arrive sometime next week, but the first step will be to flash the firmware from that horrid Vodafone shyte to something more generic.
Mario, the way i see it, nothing short of martial law is going to bring about a halt to the lawlessness here. The time *may it never happen, touch wood* may well come that Parliament decides to suspend certain provisions of the Constitution and send in the army to assist you guys. I'd hate to see a return to the 70s/80s, but something drastic is maybe needed.

Congrats Kryptik!!!
You must also get a 2GB MiniSD for it,they are dirt cheap now! N73 is still a sweet device especialy for pics and music. A friend of mine recently changed the covers of his N73 from the Silver Grey/Deep Plum to Frost White/Metallic Red and it looks great!

Thanx boet, it always takes me an eternity to acquire/dispose of a Symbian handset. I'm tracking some memory cards on bidorbuy, so i'll pick up either a 2gb or 4gb within the next few days as well. I'd buy one of them on the BuyNow option right now, but Absa's internet banking service has been up to utter shyte the past few days, and i hate buying something and not paying immediately, not to mention my great dislike of standing in those damned queues at the bank.
