The Political Thread

[Goaty]

Oh dear, hope Shark okay? His profile shows his last on here on that day?

Just spent 26 hours in the iso cubes and have collected a goodly arrangement of new cuts, bruises and gouges but, hey, I'm a proper rebel now! I'll write a fuller report when I've found somewhere to crash.

And thanks all for your kind thoughts - really cheered me up on 'getting out'!

Bloody hell man.  At least you're still with us.

[CrazyFoxMachine]

Yikes Shark - relieved you're (relatively) okay!

[ZenArcade]

Glad to hear you're ok buddy; not so glad to hear about cuts and bruises. Keep in touch with the thread, evidently a lot of people are very concerned for your wellbeing. Z ps: leave one of the guys a contactable number. 

[Professor Bear]

Hope you're well despite current circumstances, Sharky.

I've just seen a European Election Broadcast by the BNP.

It was weird.

Jesus.  Glad you're (relatively) ok! Sorry to hear you've lost your gaff though; I hope it all works out for you

This would be laughable if it wasn't also weird:

Looks delicious. Not sure if those spuds are 100% indigenous, though.

[Definitely Not Mister Pops]

I don't know what to make of these elections. Or the European Union.

I think it's a good idea, but politics is where good ideas go to die.

[Dode C]

Good grief Sharky! Sounds like the past couple of days have been hard on you. Hope you're bearing up as well as can be expected and I really hope things work out.

Sleeping in a friend's workshop tonight and already the possibility of an actual writer's garret loft thing to move into. Will post more tomorrow - surprisingly tired at the moment for some reason.
.
Again, thank you all for your touching concern - as I think (hope) I've said before,  this situation is entirely of my own construction so I really don't deserve it but I'm jolly glad it's there :-)
.
Also, please don't worry - although I haven't particularly enjoyed the last couple of days it has been a terribly informative and inspiring time (lol - I'm talking like I've just served 26 years at Shawshank instead of a day in a  Skelmersdale cop shop cell!).
.
When (if) I get my computer back, there will certainly be at least one Iso Cube Dredd story to be typed into it.
.
Thanks again - I love you all

That sounds pretty damn nice.  While I hate the simple-minded saying 'Everything happens for a reason' (of course it does - the tsunami that killed tens of thousands in 2004 happened because of an earthquake, for example), maybe some good will come out of this whole sorry mess and you'll have a really decent place to live. 

Also, I'm simultaneously dreading and looking forward to your iso-cube tales!

[Hawkmumbler]

Chin up, keep walking forward and bloody well slug any sod that tries to stop you. We're thinking of you, Sharky.

[Prodigal2]

Even the relative newbies like me are behind you Sharkers.
