    Anyone we know?

    Human cost of economic slowdown

    Among those being added to the tally is small business owner David Balfour, from Grangemouth, who told the BBC Scotland news website in August that he feared for the future of his IT firm.

    He started Greyrigg Systems Scotland Ltd in 1998 and until last year was making more than £50,000 a year undertaking contracts for companies such as British Aerospace and Norwich Union.

    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.”

      Tragic.

                  So let me get this straight. Posts concerning anyone who has ever worked at the same place as SWMNBM have to be deleted.

                  err... right

                  Odd place, this.
