I have tried not to read about this court case but what I have read has never mentioned anything about the screams of a woman in this context.
If a woman was screaming, before or even after the first shot then why shoot any more bullets as the chances of a burglar being a woman and locked in the loo seems to me to be somewhat difficult to understand why that was not enough reason not to fire any more bullets.

I have not followed the case and really I'm not interested.
I remember it being mentioned on the news back at the beginning that he thought it was a burglar. My immediate thought was 'why would a burglar be in the bathroom?'. Taking a shower? Having a crap? Stealing her perfume? Didn't ring true to me.
Still, I don't give a toss really, more interested in how much premix I need for my MH hardstanding.

Guilty.
He hasn't got a leg to stand on.

Having not given the matter the slightest consideration I am convinced that he shot her.

With hollow-point bullets too! If he gets off with murder, he should definitely be found guilty of manslaughter, at least, but what you have to remember is that this is South Africa and that their judicial system (like much else there) is basically a joke run by buffoons in fancy dress.

At least twice as much as you ordered, then the guy who's delivering it can go round your neighbours with the excess and tell them he was just doing a wee job in the vicinity and that their drive looks like it could need doing (for cheap, of course).

Yes, but it's even more buffoonish.

I assume that the cast for each performance is selected from a pool of buffers who have proven their ability to buff having buffed with other buffing buffoons in previous examples of buffoonery?

Actually it takes lengthy training (and the right contacts, of course) to become a member of this special, elite class of buffoons and membership is not open to just anyone; it's rather like the Caravan Club, in fact.

Apropos of nothing, my dog is snoring out in the hall. The bloody walls are shaking. I fear for my MH.
Anyway, carry on with what you were discussing.
Don't mind me. As usual.

in fact I'd still give her one now she's dead dead boring me..... Sea story time. When I was training in HMS Mercury in Hampshire, we were in a mizzen hut entitled Cinema. The place was packed with Matelots and Wrens. I cannot remember the film but I can remember the end when this beautiful woman jumped off a cliff, her heart broken by the bastard she fell in love with. The camera slowly zoomed in to her broken body laying across a pile of rocks on the beach. You could hear a pin drop in the cinema. A real tear jerking moment. Suddenly the total silence was broken by some simple but very moving words from one distraught sailor. "Quick. Fuck it while its still warm". In many ways this guided me in life. Always try and turn a negative into a positive.

You don't say whether everyone burst out laughing or expressed disgust at that, but being the Navy I would have thought the former - not that squaddies are any different.

I was trying to convey the emotions associated by a very sad event, mainly a heroine broken in love, broken in body and broken in mind. I would also guess it likely that she also broke wind as she hurtled towards her new life underground. You got me going. I'm filling up. I shall have to stop and gather myself.
