:-D :-D :-D

I lived near Belle Vue Zoo in Manchester. They had stock car (no pun intended) racing every Saturday night, followed by a fireworks display. I used to watch the fireworks from my bedroom window :-D :-D

Not at all.

I was speaking to one of the old boys at the Fairbridge village museum.

I was actually looking for a relative by marriage who was sent out to West Aust when I was young. This lad was a bit of a tearaway and to avoid being sent to prison he came out here. I thought that he had gone to Fairbridge, but given that he was Catholic the old boy told me that in all probability he was sent to Bindoon.

Then he said "This place was bad, but compared to Bindoon we had a picnic"

Cheerful, hey? :-(

How awful :-( :-( :-(

Unfortunately it's everywhere! A despicable crime which devastates the victims and can affect them for a lifetime. It can also destroy families.
