Manifeso?
« on: November 11, 2008, 10:08:11 AM »
Does Collin have a manifesto, or is that an unfounded rumour?

Other possible unfounded rumours:

a) In Primary School, he couldn't spell "Colin"
b) He'd been practicing saying  " 'evening all" like Dixon of Dock Green, and was seriously upset at not becoming Constable.

I heard that when he was a CO, there was a break in at a property in St Peter, he wound up investigating a member of his own family! I never found out what happened but the owner swears it's true. I don't know whether to beleive him or not so I suppose its just heresay.

His son was/is reponsible for designing the annual Poppy appeal limited edition badge.

His son is also responsible for a lot of other things... none of them good

But as they say in the good book " The sins of the fathers are not the sins of the sons".

Is it a good book? Richard Dawkins would suggest that it is full of unfounded rumours too!

Quite true, what niggles me is that we spend most of our lives trying to stay out of trouble, when someone falls by the wayside they seem to be fully exhonorated, raised to a super status and damn anyone who says otherwise.
