I love the fact that he's so coy in the message. That vague reference to something that happened. Hedging his bets. Just like he was with the relationship.

Glad I found this, I was going to post and ask for an update.

Can't believe he is only just twigging - bless him.

Blimey, how dense can one man be?!?!?!

Northernlurker · 30/04/2009 07:56

He really is staggeringly thick isn't he? I think what he meant with the job reference was that as the guardians of public safety the police wouldn't indulge in ensuring that a total twat got his comeuppance. Like I said - he's very, very thick!

Just caught up with this at last and just wanted to say PMSL and i told my work collegues about this and they are PTSL too

Please send him this thread so he can see how many people (hundreds) know how much of a tit he made of himself

Your a hero Shiney, a payback to all cock munchers the world over
