Some may remember a tale I told about a barn.
This barn, after a bit of idiocy from my close friend neal. Got burnt to the ground. In brief, my friend was working in a barn. Stacking a selection of broken chip and pin machines. It was a cold day in January and so he decided to start a fire to keep warm. Using my lighter my friend recklessly started a fire on a stack of boxes and then later, upon request, in a bin, away from danger. As the situation wore on my friend moved the bin nearer to him, which I questioned, the fire flicked from the metal bin and hit a stack of boxes. To cut a long story short, the barn burnt to the ground.
1 month later he is arrested, he tells his arresting officer that it was I that started the fire. So I was arrested. I told the truth, as stated above. 4 months down the line we are both charged with Arson.
I appear in court next week.
I am, as some will known, a Cambridge university student, with a small desire to be a teacher. This offense could see my dreams dashed and my prospects ruined. I have no idea what the minimum sentence is (be it imprisonment or community service), nor do I know EXACTLY what I did wrong.
At the moment my "close friend" still insists it was I that was responsible for the fire.
Help???

Topic... must... die!
Alrighty. Any news from the university?
Aww, I missed the ending while I was netless.
Well done on fooling them all Dringo.
To think, they gave over half your fine to an imaginary leprechaun. Now that's the luck of the Irish.
I still think prison (for a little while) wouldn't have been so bad. Even if you didn't get to play cards with the lads.
Time to sleep now.
The final song-based pish-take:
Dringo fought the law, and the Dring won.
Someone else can write it. Or not.
Seriously though, I'm glad it wasn't so bad for you in the end.

What makes you think it's worth being in the news?
