... and I suppose that in order to determine the full extent of the danger that the sweet young thing was (or wasn't) in, we really would need to see a picture of the gentleman in question.

I think we have concluded ( unless further eveidence proves otherwise) that he wasn't a gentleman but a photo would help the Tango Police with their enquiries. No doubt a Jekyll & Hyde character.

Well I can only say so much in a post. I happen to belive there are far more serious trends both in the world and in cinema. There's a film called Holiday or camp or something like that where, I am given to understand, there is a sadistic delight taken in a torturing backpackers.

Maybe I live too remotely from this kind of stuff to know the causes or who's doing it. I don't regard Public-school pupils as middle class and now you are mixing together what adults do and what children or teenagers do. The Square Mile thrives on a particularly aggressive culture. But still it would appear far less violent than the impression I get of the states. In HP there is snobbery and rivalry same as real life.

________________

Today - the word "Middle Class" is determined by the amount one earns/is worth/has stashed in the bank/choice of holiday etc. No longer is that title deternined by the way in which one's vowels are pronounced with the BBC plum. Mr and Mrs Gawdblimey from Sarf East London suddenly coming into a bit of money and now able to send little Johnny to Private School would be considered Middle Class and no longer Working Class. Public school is pricey, if you can afford it for your kids, then you are definitely bracketed as "middle/upper-class". Also, your earlier post wrongly insinuated that any child from the middle-class bracket would not be engaging in any of the aforementioned crimes. Ha, ha, ha...wanna bet. I live in a prettyesque part of Kent. Garden of England. Tres middle-upper class. (So far this year, two shootings, 3 rapes, lost count of the stabbings, majority of these committed by, yes, children).

But hey...let's talk Tango, not politics:raisebro:

More than its worth to argue with a legal secretary:wink:
so I agree.

"In my youth," said his father, "I took to the law,
And argued each case with my wife;
And the muscular strength, which it gave to my jaw,
Has lasted the rest of my life."

Ha-ha-ha- :together: - fabulous poem/quote. Again, by one of our home-grown greats.


When London's call is too hard to bear
And it's message to sweet to share
We will meet and we shall dance beneath the moon and her glare

young women often have no idea what neanderthals men can be....

Sorry for the thread resurrection (you have some Oldies but Goodies).

& Young men have no idea how many women are Early Paleolithic at heart!
