The Twitter equivalent of marching into your local police station and declaring yourself to be a Freeman on the Land. I wonder how a journalist working at a news broadcasting station* would be able to check and investigate if something was false? *I use the terms journalist and news in possibly there loosest meaning as think their defence for some of their stuff and presenters is that they are more entertainment than news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never did find out if anyone was brave enough to open an establishment of that name. JM Barrie and his team should have gone on a goodwill tour of Afghanistan. The "sport" appears to be inexplicably popular there. Allahakbarries was an amateur cricket team founded by author J. M. Barrie, and was active from 1890 to 1913. The team's name was a portmanteau of Barrie's name and the mistaken belief that 'Allah akbar' meant 'Heaven help us' in Arabic (rather than its true meaning: 'God is great').[1][2] Notable figures to have featured for the side included Rudyard Kipling, H. G. Wells, Arthur Conan Doyle, P. G. Wodehouse,[3] G. K. Chesterton, Jerome K. Jerome, A. A. Milne, E. W. Hornung, Henry Justice Ford, A. E. W. Mason, Walter Raleigh, E. V. Lucas, Maurice Hewlett, Owen Seaman, Bernard Partridge, Augustine Birrell, Paul Du Chaillu, Henry Herbert La Thangue, George Cecil Ives, and George Llewelyn Davies, as well as the son of Alfred Tennyson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 (edited) Tried? So he didn't even get the fun of setting the polis on fire but, due to his own incompetence, he's in the jail for it anyway? You know how, when a serial killer is caught, there's always a lot of "who'd have thought it, he always seemed like such a quiet boy" from the neighbours? Doesn't seem like there's a lot of that sentiment going about for these wallopers. Edited August 23 by BFTD He's is? f**king hell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
