in plain sight about Savile - a great read

[ElizabethHoover]

In plain sight by Jimmy Savile. I LOVED this book and devoured it. DO NOT be put off by the subject recommendation, its a must read for everyone.

Thanks, I bought it but haven't read it yet. I was interested in the way the author came to the story.

have you read how now? tis very funny imo

In what way funny?

Is it not totally bloody horrible though?

nope - ( tis I the OP)
its GREAT, not too much specific about abuse ( that would be weird)but so interesting how he groomed everyone and about his early years as a miner and DJ - and how much mystery and myth he bullt up about himself

I see i mentioned it being funny

I think i was half through a post saying 'funny how he'... ( god knows what, managed to get away with it)

Obv not funny

oh i know - funny how the author came to the story - he jus thought JS was bloody weird, not like the rest of us

Really? You don't think this thread is a touch... crass?

you need to read the book.
it reveals a SCANDAL about abuse.

and its a very very interesting read

I think not.

What a strange zombie thread, why are you bumping this?
If you accidentally said it was funny, why wait three months to say so

I fail to see how a book about a peadophile could possibly be funny!

Read the thread. I had a name changed in between. I saw with horror that I had said it was funny. I could not remember what o was svtuslly meaning to say.. And I realised that it was a badly typed post saying it was funny how the author started the book. I've corrected myself several times -read the thread

It obviously isn't funny that children are abused figs.

Fgs

Yes, but it took you three months to say that, and even now you aren't posting coherently on such a sensitive subject.
Do you not use MN much?

I am HOWLING at 'do you not use mumsnet much?

Fucking brilliant. Not that that will mean a whole lot to you Brillo but it's safe to say that the OP uses MN a fair bit

This thread is weird. And totally crass. You posted strangely in the first place and then came back weeks later for another go. Give it up and move on!

I didn't have my glasses on. Can't bloody see.

I can't back to look at books I liked. See if anyone had read them. I often do this on this section.

Didn't realise that was a problem !
