Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted August 20, 2004 Does he still live in his Sri Lankan beach house, gazing out over the frolicking young boys whilst contemplating the Mysteries of the Universe? Gosh, I do hope so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rude Kid 3 Posted August 20, 2004 He does. Can you imagine his horror when he left the UK for Sri Lanka, only to find that he'd accidentally moved to a country that (a) didn't have an extradition treaty with Britain, and (b ) is notorious for turning a blind eye to wealthy foreigners with a love of children? Nightmare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stayin Alive 26 Posted August 20, 2004 I bet he is a big fan of Michael Jackson's music too - I'd be hankering a guess that "The Girl Is Mine" would be on his Sri Lankan desert island discs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stayin Alive 26 Posted November 1, 2004 I've lost count of the number of books I've had signed in clear ballpoint pen. Bidding already seems ferocious. What about Trapped In a Dark, Tight Space (1994)? Any signed videos of that one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted November 2, 2004 Lol - I missed the fact that it was signed in clear ballpoint pen Which reminds me Mr Alive, youve not cashed that £2,000 cheque that I signed for you in clear ballpoint pen - no problem is there?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grim Reaper 186 Posted November 7, 2004 are you trying to say that arthur c clarke is a pedofile?shame n you! Is that anything like a "Lever Arch File"? Its a good idea not to use big words if you cannot spell them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rude Kid 3 Posted November 7, 2004 I do believe that 'pedofile' is the correct American spelling. But no-one said he was anyway... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 186 Posted November 7, 2004 In true scrabble style, I'm gonna call you on that spelling RK... I don't believe that's a correct American spelling - various web dictionaries seem to support my theory - can anyone confirm or deny this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dazza 0 Posted November 7, 2004 correct american spelling Shouldn't you be looking up the definition of oxymoron? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stayin Alive 26 Posted November 7, 2004 I thought a pedofile was someone who just couldn't get enough of The Streets? Although you could be asking Chris Morris, of Brasseye fame, about the spelling, as this is how he seems to pronouce is the most recent Brasseye. And whilst we are on the subject, isn't oxymoron an acne remedy/preparation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
