    The Sherlock Holmes thread

    Seven letter bombs arrive in a short period of time and the plod pronounce that they may be linked.

    Saints preserve us!

      Do you think letter bombers actually put letters in as well

        Apparently at least a few of them had a return name & address on them - of an animal rights activist who died in 2002 or something - which knowing our postal service, is probably when they were actually posted

          That is a clever Herring Rouge.... let's examine the evidence
          Birmingham is the mid point for all the sites of explosions & the Congestion Charge & DVLA offices have been targeted.
          What the police should be doing is looking for someone based in Birmingham with a grudge against the motoring authorities - possibly as a result of a misdemeanour and a perceived sense of injustice.
          Because of the nature of the incidents the perpetrator is likely to originate from another country where "direct action" is a accepted method of protesting.......if this profile sounds familiar to any of us we have a duty to report our suspicions to the authorities
          How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

            Excellent post Troll !

            As I read it, it all became clear !

            Well done Sir !
            Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                  Troll you are Sherlock Holmes and I claim my half sovereign (or whatever).
