I had this email this morning, total boll0cks??
 
This arrived in my inbox from my other half this morning and looks like yet another scam email but I thought I'd run it past you lot incase it gets adapted to where you live ;) It sounds like a load of crap to me but you never know.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was the boss of Lisa's friend it happeneded too and someone who she
works with has a brother who works at the Slough Cop shop and he has
confirmed it to be real. Spread the word!
Terrorist attack in Slough 4th/5th December (Apparently)
My girlfriends boss who was in Slough High Street yesterday picked up a
wallet that she saw a bloke drop and picked it up and started shouting at
him to stop so she could give the wallet back to him.
He finally stopped and gave the walet back and he then said thanks and
offered her some money from the wallet and she said no. He then said please
take the money and she said no again. Then he said I feel I should repay
you for your honesty and told her not to be in Slough on the 4th/5th od
december because there will be a terrorist act.
She went to the police and they checked CTV cameras and found out the guy
was a well known terrorist.

The police are taking this matter seriously, sp please be warned!

This has been kicking around since 9/11. iirc there is now also a joke version (ie Stay away from Slough on 4th December...... Why - will there be an attack.......No - its just a sh1thole etc etc)

It's still a good excuse not to go shopping though :D

Iwan 01 December 2004 01:22 PM

It's a hoax. Wishfull thinking maybe, i wouldn't exactly be disappointed if Slough got vaporised at the weekend.

I've heard the same crap about the trafford centre in manchester and how they keep a big stock of body bags in the cellar!

Biggins 01 December 2004 01:41 PM

I've heard Leicester mentioned also.

Leicester has had it's fair shair of suspected terrorist arrests and does sport a very high muslim population.

You just never know. :)

fast bloke 01 December 2004 01:43 PM

I've heard similar things about Belfast....... you never know :D

Dracoro 01 December 2004 01:50 PM

There's gonna be a massive bomb this afternoon that's gonna wipe out the whole country. Heard this from a trusted source. You never know etc..... (until tonight anyway :D)
