I'm a Celebrity Get Out of My Way

Thomas K Amphong (Tom D.), Tuesday, 19 November 2013 15:42 (twelve years ago)

Fagg, 56, of Redgeland Rise, St Leonards, was due in Crawley Magistrates’ Court today to enter pleas to three counts.

He is charged on August 22 with harassment.

The specifics of this offence are “for approximately three years you have regularly called and visited the office of Holden and co solicitors and then in August 2013 you began to attend the offices leaving notes on the window and shouting outside the offices.

“On August 22 you then attended the offices and committed criminal damage by throwing fish entrails and sour milk on the carpet.

“On August 23 you attended the offices and poured a brown substance over the front windows of the offices.

“On August 28 you sent an abusive letter to Jolyon Holden and on September 11 after being arrested and bailed for this harassment you left a threatening message on the answer phone of the offices.”

It must be said, we are a nation rich in brown substances.

How much of that could one do and not get to the point of being charged with harrassment?

I like to think I have learnt a thing or two about music (Neil S), Thursday, 28 November 2013 16:00 (twelve years ago)

Supt Carl Edwards said: "Firstly, I'd like to stress that it isn't against the law to dress up as a clown.

"Nobody has been assaulted and it appears that the people involved are waiting for a passer-by to be startled by their appearance and run away, and then the clown runs after them for a short distance."

it is important to gain a perspective on these incidents

Interested to see clown loitering perhaps starting to go viral after the Northampton occurrences. Anticipating the growth of a new subculture.

I must say I have a lot of love for the kind of institutional stairwell pictured in that last shot. Prefer them to be unsullied by Space Raiders / M&Ms / unspecified slop obv.

I particularly love when pubs which have been decorated as traditional pubs on the ground floor of 60s / 70s developments but the wood-pannelled door marked "toilets" opens to a stairwell / corridor in this precise style, St Bride's Tavern off New Bridge Street being a particularly good example.

unspecified slop looks like blood to me, no doubt spilled in a Space Raiders vs M&Ms beef

Maybe more Real Britannia than specifically England but Iceland's attempts at hors d'oeuvres made me thing of this thread.

Yes, that is a fish finger with a single chip embedded in mushy peas.

Also their attempts to help us navigate the minefield that is choosing wine for a party:

That Iceland stuff makes me think that a PR agency has persuaded them to chase some 'ironic hipster food' buzz.

oppet, Thursday, 12 December 2013 13:33 (twelve years ago)

They had paper cones of chips as hors d'oeurves a few years ago and probably looked at trend reports to come to that decision.

hatcat marnell (suzy), Thursday, 12 December 2013 13:56 (twelve years ago)

The fish finger/pea/chip tower sounds delicious tbh.

Similar thing happened last year iirc. Santa's Grotto was said to be staffed by young, thin men is a good line.

oppet, Sunday, 15 December 2013 14:04 (twelve years ago)

iirc the similar event last year had a profoundly Real England photoset to go along with it.

actually I was thinking of one from a few years back, but: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/pop_ups/08/uk_lapland_new_forest/html/1.stm

Oh yeah that's the one I was thinking of. Photo 5 is great.

documenting grime seems to have enervated the thread. no such problems for this guy, who has got an eye for provincial peculiarities worthy of jonathan meades

The traffic light section of his website seems much too extensive to not have been created in earnest.

this guy is like a far-cheerier kindred spirit of dan wilson who had those amazing resonance fm shows and is so completely unknown by anyone else I fear I might have dreamt him entirely
