Roy, Your comment. "As you're the one that gave this thread the subject name "Idiot Magistrates", did you really mean to type "Idiot Clerk To Justice"?

Two Hampshire motorists have had their convictions overturned after it emerged the allegations ...
Webmaster, How about cleaning up FEL699's language?
Sick of your abuse FEL699 so lets do what you said. Lets see you back up the threat. Especially calling me a druguser to my face. Quote " maybe i should meet YOU and DRUGuser4549... it would make an interesting evening... it would certainly put an END to your abuse.
Close.
As per usual you perceive you are always correct,unfortunately you cannot accept when you are wrong. As regards abuse and being rude you are excellent at that, you would make a perfect dictator.
