Justice system, too many repeat offenders just get bailed instead of a harsher punidhment (electrocuted, having concrete feet made, etc etc) - make prison a right nasty affair so they don't want to go back!! Justice system for me! Glad you're not the prison guv MHB ; No seriously I hate junk mail (paper copy and emails) and probably most of it ends up in a bin unread, and not forgetting a huge waste of trees. Courts - for me life should mean life, or a 10 year sentence should mean 10 years, none of this get out in half for good behaviour. Jellyfish - reminds me of Machrihanish beach full of washed up jellyfish back in my teens. An amazing site but of course some yob picked up a beach and splattered one... not a pretty sight. Junk mail just edges it. But I do work with staff involved in Youth Justice, but professional and personal feelings are different!!!!

Good selection, benno.
I've been facinated with jelly fish since I was kid, so I can't put those in. A wonderful freak of nature that continues to facinate. As a rule, if they are coloured, then they may give you a sting, but aren't dangerous. If they are clear, then they can be fatal. I also love jellyfish as Epworth Junior was able to say 'siphonophore' when he was 2, thanks to The Octonauts - and relentless daddy coaching! *Cue smug grin which says: my kid's cleverer than yours'*
The justice system is far from perfect, but at least we have one. There is a big problem with mismatching the crime to prison term, but I suspect it is the minority that then get into the papers that skew opinion. I may be wrong on this - I don't have any stats, it's just a feeling. My main issue with it is that there is so little focus on rehabilitation. I'm far from a softy on this, but it makes no sense to lock people up and then kick them back onto the streets with nowhere to live and no way of earning money. I wonder what they'll do next...
So, junk mail it is. Both in the post and in my inbox. It doesn't seem to matter that we always tick 'no mail', we still end up with random catalogues from different retailers. Every other week I get a mail shot from BT telling me about the great deals they have on cable broadband. We don't have cable on our road, so leave me alone. I've enough to do without receiving fodder for the paper recycling bin. At least email junk tends to end up in a separate junk box and not my inbox, but it still needs clearing out.
Thanks, benno. I feel better for that!
