Lucky Boy

Getting into work was a complete nightmare this morning. A burglar was shot in the leg last night at around 8pm and despite the Police knowing who was shot, what he was shot with, who shot him and whyl, this did not deter them from closing the road between Hereford and Worcester causing absolute chaos right back up to Junction 7 of the M5.

As is usual for this back asswards country, the man who was burgled has been arrested for attempted murder.

Personally, I think the young man with a hole in his leg can count himself as quite fortunate. I would have gone straight for the centre of his face, passed the noise off as a firework and dug a shallow plot for him under the azaleas.
