Being in the UK I'm sure the robber will sue the guy next week for a twinge in the shoulder and psychological stress caused to him during the incident...and being the UK he will win.
It has been made very clear by members and Paul I am not welcome on this forum because I don't bend over and agree with everything warlord does.
Unfortunately I don't care what any of you think...at all.
