ARmy Rumour SErvice

I'm afraid I don't believe this. There's no date for this story but google turns up no results for any homeless men being set on fire in London, by students or anyone else.

You'd think this would have got even I tiny mention in the news somewhere.

Of course, if this is proven to be true then I'll stump up some cash.

More likely she's got £365 from a load of gullible twats, the missing Richard in Holborn can be explained by the fact she's rehoused him. Someone needs to verify the police report.

The last time I saw a chap who was most certainly ex-services was in 1999 when I was waiting for a train at Waterloo one evening, ranting to him self and pacing about this rather tall chap dressed like a biker complete with pony tail was about half way through what seemed to be his second bottle of white lighting of the evening. Poor fucker sounded completely minced in the head and rather upset with himself at the same time.

Just another pisshead I thought until I noticed the rather pricey looking pair of Danners on his feet.

It's like the National Lottery I suppose.

Even a most bone idle google of homeless/fire/holborn/students etc doesnt turn up the local news or BBC report, it does however turn up the link to this thread.

I call con artist - I saw one cunt turn up on another forum claiming his daughter was dying from cancer and he needed free bikes parts and kit for his chairty ride round britain. The twat had hijacked a charity page belonging to a genuine fund raiser to try and cadge stuff to flog on ebay.

Dartford's a fair way from Holborn and he didn't die.

Three law students setting fire to a tramp....would be all over the papers, particularly them being LAW students.

Plod would never take perpetrators to the victims bedside anyway.

Skin graft? Would be done post haste, not after sending him out on the street to die of gangrene.

Sounds like either she has been taken in by the homeless man or she's trying to take all of us in.
