Agreed Honey but unfortunately, by the time the first trial started (after all "legal argument" before it) "maps" didn't matter as I'd agreed I'd met 4 of the 5 men and "maps" were neither here nor there... haha.
honey!oh sugar sugar.

That sounds like strong evidence if collusion between accusers...

So can I! his house has been repeatedly featured in the Radio times and Woman's weekly.
Good point and can they be sure someone else who'd been there never fed them those descriptions? I don't think so...
