You have to think if there was any excuse for making lots of puns relating to charges this would be it, but it seems to have totally whooshed them.

Scottish director, British production company, Silicon Valley funding. What about this is Hollywood?

(Not a go at you Mr Cutter, it's all over the article.)

They were filming that in Glasgow a few weeks ago in the old Co-op building on Morrison St.

Doesn’t seem that unusual tbh. Everyday behaviour round here.

How do non-fifers carry their baby dolls? You have to carry your pitch fork anyway. You have your sisters hand in the other. Seems a perfectly natural solution to combine fork and doll.

Fife becoming a police state.  Can’t even throw Jaffa cakes at folk or brandish pitchforks any more.

The real crime here is the Townie Press referring to them as biscuits. Clue is in the name.

I see he was done for other things as well but is there actually a law against carrying a pitchfork with a baby doll impaled on it?

This is constant news in the Facebook thread and it’s about time this thread was made aware of the threat of hapless dog-nappers. 
 

They are always unsuccessful, and when they are successful, the dog is always later found safe and well. They always drive a rusty old van. Sometimes they wear chinos. Sometimes they are Irish, sometimes East European. 
 

They only strike in broad daylight in busy parks when everyone else is looking the other way.

I’m away to walk the dog right now so if you don’t hear from me or Renton again you can assume the rusty van driving scoundrels have got us.

This should barely make local news, but for some reason the BBC are all over it as if it’s a story of national importance.

Although I suppose the most important thing when acquiring a  business isn’t the due diligence or other legal process, but making sure that there’s absolutely no pricing inconsistencies.
