I didn't realise they had Maplin in the south.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.” -

I wish they would make an effort if they are going to bother having shops at all - I really don't like having to go to Dixons instead - they really are scum.Comment

I don't like Curry's that much. Only ever go in there to get some batteries or some headphones in a hurry.If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.Comment
