It's amazing what some reporters think is 'news'. I thought this was common knowledge?

Cubster, you are right it is common knowledge - it's just that due to new dna techniques it can be confirmed beyond doubt.Obviously being the BBC, news doesn't 'exist' untill they report it.Anyway I thought it was still common to do this to your enemies. Or is that just me?......Surprised

I've always drunk from the skulls of my enemies, although in fairness I have always been choosy over who to class as an enemy.cocnut joe
