	It is mindless greed Sylvia. Designer glasses are sought after. Have just heard that the friend in Catford had the whole of his shop front taken off. It is boarded up tonight and he hopes to open to open for business tomorrow.

	Oh LK that is really scary for you and your friends. I think these hooligans give young people a bad name which is a shame when there are many more who are horrified about this behaviour. From reports I've heard the riots seem to be greed motivated.

	Just watching the One Show and how heartening to see the residents of the affected areas in London and other places coming out en masse to help in a giant clean up. There they are with their brushes and shovels and binbags. Great stuff! We are in for a dreadful day weather wise tomorrow apparently. Lots and lots of rain. Deep joy.

"I am granting the Metropolitan Police emergency powers to use water cannons, rubber bullets and tear gas to take back control of our streets from these ponsing, stealing, parasites . In addition I am deploying the British Army as a visible presence to provide the authority that is so very lacking.". ... .Carlsberg don't do Prime Ministers but if they did... :-)

	Renes there is nothing on the BBC to substantiate that comment from the PM? If I was being a bit right wing, I might say impose a curfew, but rubber bullets kill people

	You're welcome Renes The rioters should be ashamed of themselves. The Government should be ashamed of themselves for not being strong and sending in the water cannons and the Army to support the police. What kind of message are they sending out? I admit to being a supporter of corporal punishment because since it was removed of the Isle of Man statute books crime has increased. I can remember walking home in the early hours of the morning in complete safety, now I worry when my son is out because sometimes things kick off.

	I totally agree Renes.... Completely PANTS the lot of em...Every promise in the world till they get in power and then backslide on most of them,specially the ones that dont help them get greater wealth or power ..... In fact I think ALL politicking is PANTS... :-P But Im a Tory through and through...Labour just turned this country into a nanny state...No discipline now,all gone down the drain with the water from the cannons.. Up the Camerons... Bring back Maggie I say...She took no nonsense.... Crackered now...~~~~~~~~~~~

	busy day tomorrow morning ......... meeting with our financial advisor and his assistant to discuss how our investments are doing afternoon ............... to the family doctor to get the results of the biopsy I do know that they have received the results .............. got home this afternoon (Tuesday) from physio to find a message on the answer machine. "This is xxxxx from the Health Clinic. With regard to some reports that we have in. Dr xxxx will be glad to see you at 1 pm today [Tuesday]. If you can't make it, she will see you at 9:00 am tomorrow [Wednesday]" Minor panic! It was about 4:45, clinic usually closes at 4:30 pm. Tried phoning just in case. Someone answered, had to "hold". Finally she said, we realised that you already have an appointment, so don't worry, come to that appointment! s xxx
