I know this is a serious issue and, by now, you all know of the devastation around Aisa. There is one good thing to come out of this. The British public proved that they do not need an evening of sub-standard entertainment on the BBC to encourage them to donate. Up to date, Terry Wogan has not been called upon to tell us how bad things are. Without Terry's help the UK public raised 30 million English pounds in about 2 days.
The goodwill shown by the rich western nations will do more for the fight against terror than "The Fight Against Terror" (did that make sense?).

I needed to take the boy in to measure his feet and saw activity in Farmer's. Unusual for a Thursday, thought I. Must be open all week, it being Christmas. So I poked my head in and asked "Are you open today and tomorrow?". "No! just tomorrow" came the reply " I only came in to write a cheque and they all followed me in!"

Recent crimes have put the self-defence issue under renewed focus People should be entitled to use any force necessary to defend themselves against burglars, England's most senior police officer has said. Met commissioner Sir John Stevens said householders should be presumed to have acted legally, even if a burglar dies, unless there is contrary evidence.
Laws which often seemed to favour criminals should be clarified, he said.
People should be prosecuted only when there was evidence of gratuitous violence, he told the Daily Telegraph.
Under the current law, people are entitled to use "reasonable force" to defend themselves and their homes.
It is up to judges and juries to decide what level of force is "reasonable".
Sir John said the public and police were confused about what that meant.
The law was currently sending the wrong message by encouraging burglars to break into houses in the belief that no householder could harm them, he said.
He told the paper: "My own view is that people should be allowed to use what force is necessary and they should be allowed to do so without any risk of prosecution.
